Lawful permanent resident (LPR) is a status given to U.S. immigrants/non-citizens who can legally live in the United States forever. LPRs enjoy similar rights as citizens including working without special restrictions, own property, receive financial assistance, and join the armed forces, and LPRs have to file income taxes similarly to citizens. However, LPRs do not have any rights to vote in U.S. elections and may be prevented from some activities made exclusively for citizens such as certain jobs or scholarships.
