SACRAMENTO — The Immigration and Naturalization Service has agreed to give legal immigrants more time to get new-look green cards and will publicize how some people don't have to pay the $75 fee.
The agreement settles a class-action lawsuit filed by groups that claimed the replacement program was unfair.
The program aims to replace all the old, easily forged cards with new, tamper-proof cards covered by a special holographic plastic and bearing the holder's fingerprint. Both cards have the holder's photo.
