Well some people may have different views nevertheless...... There isn't a residency requirement...... You can enter today...leave tomorrow or in 3weeks and return in one month.

The immediate status "permanent resident" is effective the day you enter the usa and can submit the respective applications.

just remember...if you plan on leaving to go to the Philippines after getting your green card, you are only allowed to stay out of the U.S. for 6 months. anything beyond that, they will question you at the POE. and staying outside the country beyond 1 year is considered that you have abandoned your LPR status unless you have a very good and compelling reason for USCIS to consider...or if you have a re-entry permit :)
