Hello everyone!! I finally get to go home for three weeks and I would like to know when do I need to use my Residency card.

When i check in with the airline do i show my passport and my green card? or just my passport, when I get to Mexico's airport do I show my passport and my green card at the immigration place?

and one last question, when I come back do I still get in the same immigration line ? foreign travelers? My husband was telling me I might have to go to the other line but I'm not a citizen so i just want to make sure if the other line is for residents and citizens or just citizens.

Thank you so much and happy holidays!!!

on return to USA, go to the citizen's line - PRs go into that line.

If your passport name does not match your green card name, carry an official marriage certificate with you.

Sometimes my language usage seems confusing - please feel free to 'read it twice', just in case !
Ya know, you can find the answer to your question with the advanced search tool, when using a PC? Ditch the handphone, come back later on a PC, and try again.

Use ur pr card when asked for it...

+ WHen u Leave the us: just PASSPORT( u know as soon u show ur mexican passport they will let u go, u know why..they dont want you here cause they think u are ilegal SO u dont need ur green card )

+ Comming BACK to the US : PASSPORT AND GREENCARD ( they ask u for these IDs , so they wont allow any ilegal mexican in the US, dont get me wrong, I Know u are not ilegal)

+ About the LINES: The are 2 lines : ( 1 for the gringos and green card holder) and ( 1 for the tourists) IF u dont fit in these categories , there are more lines in the BORDER between mexico and US, get some COYOTES to get u in line, but be careful its very risky out there.

wow Really? ----> bout the LINES: The are 2 lines : ( 1 for the gringos and green card holder) and ( 1 for the tourists) IF u dont fit in these categories , there are more lines in the BORDER between mexico and US, get some COYOTES to get u in line, but be careful its very risky out there

First of all, there is no need for you to even say that, there are people dying for doing that and it's not even funny. Second of all, I won't have any problem because I'm a Resident, I was just requesting information about traveling with a green card.

on return to USA, go to the citizen's line - PRs go into that line.

If your passport name does not match your green card name, carry an official marriage certificate with you.

Thank you that was very helpful!! :)

Chesster, thats a bit harsh, dontcha think? Sure - I abhor illegal stuff, probably more than most - but to suggest this, even as a joke, is uncalled for, ya?

Not only that, it is completely against the Terms of Service. - and has been made known as such to Admin.

Butterfly: when you travel into Mexico you need only your passport (I am assuming your are a Mexican citizen, correct me if I am wrong). If not, you need your passport + green card,

Coming back you go in the USC and LPR line; with your passport AND greencard.

Happy travels.

The upper forums relate to immigration concerns and off-topic types of comments, judgmental statements and antagonistic attitudes are not acceptable here. Please do not continue with this type of comment as it is unhelpful, non-supportive and unwelcome.

“...Isn't it splendid to think of all the things there are to find out about? It just makes me feel glad to be alive--it's such an interesting world. It wouldn't be half so interesting if we knew all about everything, would it? There'd be no scope for imagination then, would there?”

++ OMG i can Believe u are defending this situation, becouse first, my canadian friend. u are not hispanic, so u dont know how rascist immigration can be..

++ SECOND illegal immigrants cross the borders every day. If They put their lives in risk, is their problem. so stop defending something that is wrong

++ THIRD it may sound harsh but ITs THE REALITY , SO DONT LOOK SURPRISE FOR MY WORDS

++FOURTH im trying to help this girl, with some facts maybe she doesnt know, or she knows already but, she is scared to say

++ FIFTH im not insulting anybody, becouse its the pure true, so dont get offended by the reality, even if u are not hispanic

++SIXTH DOnt look surpirse or shocked for being honest.. this world if full of hypocrecy

++ SEVENTH it may sound harsh, but its the true, dont be shocked by this, but we hispanic ppl are very discriminated , my canadian friend.

++ SO for all those who like to be lied, sorry im not one of u

I am Hispanic, and your comments are completely inappropriate. You are trying to help? You have no idea what you are talking about.

And just FYI, Kathryn41 is a site moderator, so if I were you i would take 5 minutes to read the Terms of Service. With 48 hours as a member, you are already in the road for suspension.

Pink butterfly is asking for decent answers to her decent questions. She is not asking to be ridiculed or to be insulted.

Dang! Chesster, if you can't give her accurate answers, just don't reply. If you are being discriminated by people around you, it's because of your attitude towards people, not because you are Hispanic.

Hello!!Yes you need to show your green card and passport at the airline check in counter.And about which line(tourist/US citizen)you need to follow i think it depends on your port of entry.When i flew in at LAX last year residents/US citizen have to fall in the same line.I just got back 2 weeks ago from a vacation from the Philippines and Seattle is my POE and they asked me to fall in line with the tourists...

Happy Holidays!!Goodluck!!
