My conditional GC expires in Oct 2012.

However, my husband and I are planning to live overseas for the next two years.We are leaving in two months.

I don't want to lose my GC status so I want to apply for a re-entry permit.

But when it's time to file Form I-751, I would be overseas.

What should I do?

Thank you all for the input.

yes you should apply for a reentry permit, and then when it comes time to remove conditions on your gc, you can have someone prepare/send your application for you but you have to be present for the biometrics and interview (or no interview if you're lucky).

What if I cannot come back to the states for the biometrics? We are planning to have babies overseas and it would be inconvenient for me to travel.

Unfortunately I don't think you'd have much choice. You pretty much have to play by their rules. Also, keep in mind that staying out of the country for so long will "reset" the count for your naturalization eligibility date (which may or may not be an issue to you).

If I remove the conditions next July in china but when I return the states it has been more than one year, what will happen?

If uscis tells me to renew my conditional green card after I enter the border, but it has been more than a year, would I still be allowed to enter?
