Here is the cliff notes answer to all of that:  Prove it.  No employer is going to be dumb enough to tell you they are not hiring you because of your national origin. 

Well if it happened there would be opening in HR.

Oh I see the goalposts have moved. Glad we established that my original claim of "terminating/ not hiring someone because you don't like the valid documents provided during the I-9 check is illegal and falls under employment discrimination due to national origin" wasn't "nonsense", though.

 

As for proving it  well that would be exactly why I advised asking for it in writing (reading helps!) and barring that, well lots of people file suit and win employment discrimination cases with far less. The circumstances here would be fairly straightforward-- he has the job and is concerned about being terminated during the I-9 process. They would be telling him why, effectively.  Harder to prove would be if the refused to hire him well before this juncture, but that's not the topic because that's not the situation here. But that wasn't your initial criticism anyway. Glad you learned something today.

Another question guys. Under what section green card and the letter goes

3 or 4 different people have said that the letter extends the expiration date of your green card (#2 of column A). It more or less IS #2.

 

This is exactly the reason why 3 or 4 people have said that it would be best if you got an unrestricted social security card (#1 in column C) so that you can just bring that plus your drivers liscence (#1 in column B) and  ot have to worry about green card expiration dates.  But because you dont have time for that, your green card plus letter is sufficient and they legally cannot reject it. It is just easier because as you have noticed, the extension letter isn't explicitly listed and that could confuse people who don't know what they are doing. However, there is a 0% chance that this large company has not seen an extension letter before. They will know how to handle this.

The extension letter + green card makes the green card still valid. A green card is on list A.

The item you noted in list C is for an EAD. Green card holders do not use an EAD.

A Form I-797 issued to a conditional resident may be an acceptable List C document in combination with his or her expired Form I-551.

 

From the above picture.

Form I-797 is an approval notice.

The extension letter should be an I-797C.

So are they gonna put the info from extension to the i9? Because there is only one spot if you look at i9 page 2

Hmm...you're right. I could have sworn it was an I-797C but I just checked another one and it did not have the C.

Yeah.. I know I is a class C prove but how are they supposed to put it on the system? Look at page 2 of i9 there is only one space for one document

Found this topic. But what does she mean putting green card and letter at the same time. You can't select A and C documents at the same time 

 

 

Also found this document...

[Sercanned 21]

Update... even though I explained it to them they had no idea and sent documents to corporate office. Corporate office didn't answer whole day. Will go back tomorrow... I'm so tired guys.. I can't take it anymore.. I quit my job to get this one now I'm gonna loose both

Please read it again- the EXPIRED GC is NOT considered a List A document because it is EXPIRED

 

You can use an expired GC + 797 extension letter as a list C document. So 2 things, card+extension letter = Item C requirement.

 

Save the picture and send it to HR/corporate if they have an issue.

 

You also have to come up with a list B item and it can not be your SS card since it says not valid for work.

 

Also are you trying to change your name with SS card (using married name now or going back to maiden) if so that is why SSA cant issue you a new card in the new name. If you are NOT changing your name you should be able to get an unrestricted card from SSA.

Well they didn't even run e-verify.. I tried to explain to the HR they said since they've never seen such a thing they have to talk to corporate office about it..

An unrestricted SS card is a list C document, not list B: https://www.uscis.gov/i-9-central/acceptable-documents/list-documents/form-i-9-acceptable-documents
