Just wanted to thank everyone here on VJ is a great and very helpful site, I got my 10 years green card and i appreciate your help so thank you. I was wondering how long I can remain outside US as a permanent resident? Im not sure if its one year or 6 months. I need to go back to Mexico to renew my passport and have a surgery.

Thanks and good luck to all of you!!

hellow,

i think you can read all the information at the back of the paper they sent it along with your Green Card, but as a permanent resident, we can be outside of the US up to a year without have to filing for the I-131 form, but if you intend to stay longer than a year then you will HAVE TO file for the form I-131 for the re-entry to the US.

Congratulation for your 10 years GC and hope your surgery will go well.

The wait would be unbearable but it'll be worth it. It strengthens the love, it attaches you even more to each other, it shows how your man would do whatever it takes to be with you, that he will never give up on you because he LOVES you!! All the waits, stresses, tears, heartaches, all the miserable feelings you feel along the way will be paid off once you get what you've been hoping for...oh and WITHOUT PRAYERS? will be like trying to start a fire with water, JUST WON'T WORK!
