Is a green card a state ID

Is your Tax Return asking you to enter your State ID? 

In most states, entering the drivers license or ID is recommended but not required

  • If you do not have your State issued ID yet, you can leave the driver's license/state ID information blank, and still file your return.
  • Two states, Illinois and Alabama, do require a driver's license to file a state return.

@NjoyBhappy I think you didn't get a question right. It was not about the acceptance of Driving License or State ID. I assume that @0811eddie asked if a Permanent Resident Card ("Green Card") is considered being a State ID or could be legally used instead of State ID.

I was also wondering this question but what I have already experienced so far showed me that Green Card IS NOT accepted as your State ID. However, most of the time it's well-accepted INSTEAD of State ID as a primary verification document as well. There are some exceptions though, so you need to check the exact verification rules where you are going to apply it. Hope that helps.
