Question please!

[jpac876 1]

hello!

my husband and i applied for my AOS last may 24 and just waiting for the approval. my question is after i get my green card i believe i have a two year probation period right? correct me if im wrong but as i understand it i cannot get out of the country unless its less than 6 months? but what if i need to get back in the Philippines to study and it will most likely be more than 6 months, would that jeopardize my green card? we're thinking of doing this june of next year.

thank you in advance! hope you all had a good day!

Restrictions

Though LPRs hold the same rights and liberties as citizens (except voting), there are certain restrictions LPRs must comply with to maintain their green card status. These primarily include limitations on international travel; LPRs must be present in the United States to prove their intention to reside; LPRs who leave the United States for periods of one year or more without getting authorization from the USCIS are considered in abandonment of their U.S. residence and are stripped of their green card. Simply entering the United States once per year to make a "presence" is not enough to maintain a green card. Patterns of absence are closely monitored by the USCIS and are recorded at every point of exit and entry.
