People often mistakenly believe that green cards are nothing more than work permits. While green cards do give an immigrant the right to work legally in the United States, that is just one of the benefits. The main function of a green card is to identify the holder as a permanent resident of the United States -- a green card is, in essence, a permanent visa.
It is also called an immigrant visa. (There is a separate document called a work permit, which is given to certain people who are staying in the U.S. temporarily, that allows them to work.)
