Can I join the New York Police Dept (NYPD) with only Green Card?

Question

I heard from a friend of mine that they have changed the law and now you can join the NYPD with your Green Card, without citizenship. Is it true???

My wife is an American citizen and I just got my green card from her its valid for 10 years. I want to join the New York polce Department and I only have the Green Card. But I've been living here in NY since 1998, took my High school deploma and now just finished my 2 year college Associate Degree and I want to join the NYPD.

Any Ideas would be appreciated.

Answer 1

Contact the NYPD for the truth.  In the states of Missouri and Illinois you must be a citizen, naturalized is acceptable.  I believe it is this way in most states.

Answer 2

I dont believe IMMIGRANTS should be allowed to be police. This is AMERICA ..FOR WHITE PPL ONLY
