If in your employee handbook states that if you leave within the first year of your green card, you need to pay back all the expenses, but when the green card was initiated, I did not sign anything, can they hold me to it and ask me to pay?

It won't but you're ruining it for all other people behind you leaving a distaste to the company for all other immigrants.

I mean if you didn’t sign anything I don’t see how they could? But also all they can really do is withhold your last pay check, I think. I’m betting your new job with new pay would be worth it.

They can't withhold without legal grounds. If they don't have a signed form they won't enforce that rule. Probably going to give some crap to the person who was responsible to chase you to sign it.

No. They don’t have anything signed by you.
