my husband has received his green card. i was wondering if there is anything we need to do in order to go visit his family? also is it even a remote possibility that he could have problems entering the states when he returns?

NOPE - as long as he's got the "green card" in hand then he is goood to go! just make sure that he's got a valid passport and green crd when he travells and that's all. He'll have no problems what-so-ever!!

As an Algerian citizen, his Algerian passport will get him into Algeria. As a US permanent resident, his US Green Card (plus his Algerian passport) will get him back into the US. There is no realistic chance of his having problems reentering the US as long as his I-94 has been handed in properly [per the instructions on it's back]. His reentry process will not be scrutinized any more than yours will. [Worst-realistic case scenario: htye take an extra 30 seconds to take his picture and fingerprints on a device they have on the counter in the booth - no big deal at all.]

As a US citizen, your US passport will get you back into the US.

For travel documents, he's good to go. You, on the other hand, might need a visa to enter Algeria, I don't know. But he's fine :)

DON'T PANIC
