hi everyone i was just helping my brother fill out his citizenship and we came along a question for SELECTIVE SERVICE, he did register, he was able to answer all the question but my HUSBAND who came here on a fiance visa last year never got that little card to register and i never knew about this and ofc my brother forgot all about that....

-is it too late to register now?

-DOES HE( MY HUSBAND) EVEN HAVE TO REGISTER??cuz i read a forum on here somebody said they dont mind on the citizenship if you didnt :S i rather make sure

- he got his green card last MONTH, he is 22.. he has a green card thats valid for two years only and than we have to apply for that 10 yr green card

Yes - he will have to register.

NON-CITIZENS

Some non-citizens are required to register. Others are not. Noncitizens who are not required to register with Selective Service include men who are in the U.S. on student or visitor visas, and men who are part of a diplomatic or trade mission and their families. Almost all other male noncitizens are required to register, including illegal aliens, legal permanent residents, and refugees. The general rule is that if a male noncitizen takes up residency in the U.S. before his 26th birthday, he must register with Selective Service. For a more detailed list of which non-citizens must register, see Who Must Register - Chart .

Shouldn't be in bad shape if he just got his green card last month. Should have been a notice with his green card that he must register with SS if a male between 18 and 26. Even stuff like carrying his green card with him at all times. Still question that if he has to take it with him in the middle of the night to use the rest room.

Only takes a minute to register and can do it on line, just go to this site:
