go.
My clearance did for me, at least in talking to them much later about it I was told it does. They even said Green Card holders are often easier to verify due to the info already on file for them. Anyway, I was approved almost instantly. Granted I was one of the very early people to apply (thanks flyer talk!) so the system wasn't "clogged".
