No. All American males have to register when they turn 18. It is not automatic for anyone that I know of. If he is not a citizen, he doesn’t even have to register with the selective service.

I would assume no. Go ahead and register.

I“m a citizen. My parents and grandparents were citizens. I am in my 40s. And I still had to document my Selective Service registration for a job.

No, he has to register.

@missingbite being a non citizen does not preclude you from registering. Even if you are an undocumented alien, by law, you have to register.

@WestRiverrat While it is a requirement for Naturalization, it is not required for him if all he is going to do is have a green card. My point was that until he decides to start the process of becoming a citizen, he doesn’t have to register. He also may not have to register if he is over 26 years of age.
