Hi,

My husband will be getting his greencard in November and we would like to go and travel for 9 months since the job market is so bad.....does anyone know if this would be a problem coming back in the states?

We may come back after 2 months for a wedding and then leave again for 7 months.....

Any advice is helpful.

Thank You,

see the rules & regs at USCIS website

he should probably apply for a re-entry permit before you leave for any trip expected to be longer than 6 months.

divorced - April 2010 moved back to Ontario May 2010 and surrendered green card

PLEASE DO NOT PRIVATE MESSAGE ME OR EMAIL ME. I HAVE NO IDEA ABOUT CURRENT US IMMIGRATION PROCEDURES!!!!!
