Follow the link below to the Canadian government site concerning this question and scroll to the bottom where there are three buttons that address crossings by air (plane), land (car) or water (boat). Suffice to say, having a passport is a great convenience and satisfies the requirements of all three.

Concerning air: as of January 2007, a passport has become required for entry Concerning land: Photo ID plus a birth certificate (under 18 need only present a birth certificate) is currently still an option, but a passport will become required as of June 1, 2009. Concerning water: same requirements and future as land travel. Please follow the link for a more thorough treatment on rules, regulations and exceptions.

Carry your greencard. Green card is required to board a US (mainland) based flight from Puerto rico.

Yes, you can. You just have to take your green card along with your Iranian passport.

A green card allows you to enter the United States. It doesn't mean it will allow you to enter other countries, though. In the case of Mexico, you need to present your international passport; if you have an American passport you may enter Mexico without needing a visa. Otherwise, some restrictions apply but in general terms, people from developed countries don't require a visa to enter Mexico.

Passports had green covers from 1941 until 1976, when the cover was changed to blue, as part of the U.S. Bicentennial celebration. Green covers were again issued from April, 1993, until March, 1994, and included a special one-page tribute to Benjamin Franklin in commemoration of the 200th anniversary of the United States Consular Service.

It varies anywhere from a few months to 2 years.
The length of time for the entire process depends on the number of U.S. Citizenship applications the USCIS offices receive in each state. Additionally, making a mistake on your application can cost you even more time.

If you're in the US on a green card, and convicted of a felony, you'll be deported.

In order to apply for U.S. Citizenship you need to:

1) Be a lawful permanent U.S. resident.

2) Be 18 years of age or older.

3) Be a permanent resident for no less than 5 years.

4) Have resided for no less than 3 months in the state where the petition to become a citizen was filed.

5) Be physically present in the U.S. for at least one half of the 5 years, with no absences longer than 6 months.

6) Have resided continuously within the U.S. from the date the petition was filed to the time of admission to citizenship.

7) Have been a person of good moral character for the 5 years of residence.

8) Have an Elementary level of reading and writing English.

9) Having a basic knowledge of the fundamentals of U.S. government and history.

No.

However, if you will stay outside the U.S. for more than six months, you need to apply for a Re-Entry Permit before you go, or you could lose your permanent residency.

Every immigrant needs a green card. It is a document which allows you to legally live in the country and get a job. I'm an immigrant too by the way. A United States Permanent Resident Card, known popularly as Green Card, is an identification card for a permanent resident of the United States of America who does not have U.S. citizenship. It is proof that the holder has permission to permanently reside and take employment in the U.S. Its former official title was Alien Registration Receipt Card, and it is now officially called a Permanent Resident Card, also referred to as form I-551. The name "green card" comes from the fact that the predecessor form, I-151, was printed on green paper. Form I-551 was adopted in 1977 and has been printed on paper of various colors, none of which were green, but the term "green card" has nonetheless remained in use. As of 2006, the card is mostly white and the only prominent green feature is the lettering on the back. A card includes the holder's name and photograph, and other information, and has been updated over the years with numerous anti-counterfeiting devices. The card must be in the possession of the U.S. permanent resident at all times. This means the U.S. permanent resident must have a currently valid card on their person at all times, to show to a USCIS officer, if requested. One interesting aspect of American law is that permanent residents are required to carry identification cards, but citizens are not. This is because citizens are entitled to more constitutional rights than permanent residents, who are still classified as aliens. Before Sept. 11, 2001, while status was checked when one returned from foreign travel, the requirement to carry the green card was practically never enforced when the resident was traveling domestically. After Sep 11, 2001, officials from the US Department of Homeland Security began to occasionally ask people if they were US citizens or not, and in the latter case require that the person present their Permanent Resident Card or other proof of legal status. Green cards were formerly issued by the Immigration and Naturalization Service (INS). That agency has been absorbed into and replaced by the new U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS), formerly the Bureau of Citizenship and Immigration Services (BCIS), in the Department of Homeland Security. If an alien wants to work while his application for a green card is pending, an Employment Authorization Document (EAD) is needed.
