What’s COP means???
 
I received the green card a few days ago, it has the category as6, I am Mexican, but I want to visit Canada, but I would like to know if there is any problem in leaving and entering to the USA again from Canada (or is it only forbidden to go to my country)?

Are you flying or going via road? In this COVID ERA, you may be denied entry if you don't meet Canadian immigration new emergency requirements you must wait for the travel restrictions to end to travel to Canada.

Before COVID:

The citizens of Mexico, together with other 53 nationalities, are not required to get a visa when they travel to Canada for short visits. Instead, as a Mexican, you must apply for a Canada ETA to be able to board your flight.

What is a “Class of Admission”?

The 'class of admission' or COA describes the category under which one has admitted into the U.S. as an immigrant, such as a permanent resident or conditional permanent resident status or sometimes on non-immigrant status.

Example the classification code on the green card indicates how you got permanent residency status in the Form I-551 and which specific subtype of that category, whether you were the principal beneficiary or a derivative spouse or child, whether you entered via an immigrant visa or did Adjustment of Status in the US, and whether you are a conditional or non-conditional permanent resident.

The largest of these categories are focused on admitting foreign nationals to reunite with their families. Other categories include allowing immigrants to enter the U.S. for humanitarian or economic reasons or admitting immigrants from countries that have low levels of immigration into the U.S. (Stilt Blog, 3 Apr. 2020)

yes, but, to re-entry to the united states from Canada... is there any problem? and actually, do I have to show my Mexican passport or my green card on Canada border?
 
To enter Canada by land, a green card should be enough. To enter Canada by air, you need eTA, which requires you to use either your Mexican passport, or a US Re-entry Permit or US Refugee Travel Document. I believe that Canada is not allowing foreign visitors right now, no matter if you go by land or air.

For re-entering the US, as far as the government is concerned, a green card is enough, no matter how you enter. If you go by air, some airlines might require a passport/Re-entry Permit/Refugee Travel Document even though the government doesn't require it.

You would have to petition her as the spouse of a permanent resident, so it would be F26. In fact, even if you got married between getting asylum and getting your green card, you would still have to petition her as the spouse of a permanent resident, so it would still be F26. Only if you were married before being granted asylum can she be a derivative asylee..
