Lawful Permanent Resident (LPR)

🔓 Understand the US immigration status that allows a non-US citizen to live permanently in the United States.

A Lawful Permanent Resident (LPR) is a person who has been granted legal permission to live permanently in the United States. LPRs are commonly referred to as Green Card holders. They are not US citizens, but they hold a recognised permanent immigration status. In customs and corporate ownership assessments, the distinction between US citizenship and lawful permanent residency can be important where regulations specify which individuals may qualify as owners or controllers of a business.
