[tinaina]

When you get your citizen ship can you still keep your physical green card with you or your have to give it back to uscis?

The GC is no longer valid, it gets collected before the oath swearing

 

[1AurCitizen]

The physical green card will be collected from you on the day of oath.

Not only is it collected, they punch holes in it in front of you (as you gasp - lol), but it's ok, you are getting something more valuable!
