Will a U.S. Green Card work as the I.D.? 

I have a model that I know is over 21 but she recently lost her I.D. and is using her U.S. Green Cards will that 100% for sure fulfill the legal I.D. requirements? I know a passport will.

"Picture identification card means a document issued by the United States, a State government, or a political subdivision thereof, or a United States territory, that bears the photograph, the name of the individual identified, and the date of birth of that individual, and provides specific information sufficient for the issuing authority to confirm its validity, such as a passport, Permanent Resident Card (commonly known as a “Green Card”), or employment authorization document issued by the United States, a driver's license or other form of identification issued by a State or the District of Columbia; or a foreign government-issued equivalent of any of the documents listed above when the person who is the subject of the picture identification card is a non-U.S. citizen located outside the United States at the time of original production and the producer maintaining the required records, whether a U.S. citizen or non-U.S. citizen, is located outside the United States on the original production date. The picture identification card must be valid as of the original production date."

Yes as long as ALL the required elements are present - the single ID must have ALL the following:

1) Name of the holder
2) Their date of birth
3) Their photograph
4) Name of the issuing authority - a federal or state government agency
5) The document number applied by the issuing authority
6) Must be valid on the date of creation of the work [not expired]

The latest version issued since 2010

To catch ALL the information you may need to copy both the front and back.
