question on travel

[waldron1983 0]

hey guys, question here. Okay, finally sent off I-865 and got confirm letter, so thats in thw works. Second thing I need help on. I am expecting up to 7 months for my wife to get her perm res 10 year card. So that would be about October/Nov at the latest. I am a teacher, and have had a very very hard time finding work here, as I am a sub teacher and not a certified one. My wife and I have decided that I will take a job teaching english in Korea for 1 year in order to save up some money and invest in our future business plans. Financially were in a bad spot, as are many people, and this is something I know I can sdo well, teaching. Only concern...I read that she can stay outside US for 1 year without any problem, anything over that need a re-entery permit and that takes off her time to get her citizenship.

1. How long in your experiences, can someone stay outside copuntry without issues?

2. If my wife goes with me and we leave Jan 1, 2011 and she stays with my until May 1, 2011 and returns to USA. THEN returns to Korea with me from like OCTOBER-January (when I come back home). Is that ok??? IS it only necessary for her to re-enter the USA, or is the length of time she is in the USA important???

3. If the teaching goes well, I may return to the USA and then go back again a few months later.

Let me know. Sorry so complicated.

As a GC holder, there are two rules/conditions a LPR needs to comply with.

1. Continuous Residency

2. Physical Presence

Unless of course you apply for a re-entry permit before you depart.... if that does not work, then you can apply for a retuning resident visa
