It seems US CBP issued an updated carrier guide.

Thanks for the update.  I don't see a reference to an expired 10 year Green Card.

 

B. U.S. RESIDENTS — must provide one of the following:

• Permanent resident card, Form I-551

• Expired Conditional Resident Card, Form I-551 accompanied by Original Form I-797, Notice of Action indicating the card validity is extended

• Immigrant visa and passport

• Temporary residence stamp (“ADIT”) contained in a passport or on Form I-94 • Reentry permit, Form I-327

• Refugee travel document, Form I-571

• Temporary Protected Status, Form I-512T

• Parole authorization, Form I-512 Parole Authorization, Form I-512, or EAD Combo Card

• Employment authorization document, Form I-766

• U.S. Government issued transportation letter / Lincoln Boarding Foil

I found it on page 32.

The guide doesn't mention that in order to use Global Entry card, you need to be a US citizen when entering the US.

 

Meanwhile here it says:

 

"When you use the Global Entry kiosk, you will need to use your passport or U.S. Lawful Permanent Resident (LPR) card. The Global Entry and SENTRI cards do not work when entering the United States by air through the Global Entry kiosks. "

 

Does or mean a LPR can scan foreign passport at the kiosk instead of GC? I know many use facial recognition nowadays without need to scan anything at all...

Same ambiguous language on page 33 as before.

 

It talks about form I-797 but shows picture of I-797C. Come on!

OK, page 65 shows examples. Passport only is not an option unless it has a ADIT stamp. Logical.

I noticed the same thing.  Why they don't reference that in Part I Section B on page 2 is simply baffling.
