What will happen if I currently hold a green card but over the past 2 years I have spent a lot of time outside the US and I’m scheduled to leave again?
Yes, possibly.Ã¯Â¿Â½ If you are a green card holder, it means that you are a permanent resident of the US.Ã¯Â¿Â½ As such, you must reside in the US for most of the time AND must show the INTENT to reside in the US permanently.Ã¯Â¿Â½ If you plan to spend significant time outside the US, you should secure a reentry permit first.Ã¯Â¿Â½ Any absences from the US for more than 6 months may jeopardize your status.
