Last week I received my green card after 10 years of wait. My employer and attorney asked me to send front and back photocopy of my card which I promptly did without thinking much. Is this normal for employer or attorney to ask? Should I be concerned?

Congrats! Yes it’s okay since they need to update your status in the system.

Thanks

Your employer probably needs it for work authorization verification since you are no longer on a visa.

OP is correct—this is standard I-9 compliance, and to confirm USCIS didn’t make any errors on the actual green card. They’re just making sure there are no issues that could impact your status.
