    You can’t, but since you (almost) never need the physical card, you could go a long time without anyone caring. It’s possible that if some government agency needs to see it, they may get grumpy and not accept a laminated card. I know it’s happened to some people with my employer.

      I’m in my 40’s and the only thing I can remember is a couple of times getting the stink eye and a comment or two. Everyone has accepted it fine.

      immigrant here. I had to show it a few times for really minor stuff like booking my driving test.

      I took a wry pleasure in saying, “are you sure? It literally says right on it not to show you.” But of course would quickly cave cuz you know I need to have a driving license.
