Thank you to all the people who took the time to give useful information, I think my question has been answered.

To the easily offended people out there- the crack about being jealous was meant as a joke- I was going to include a smiley face but forgot. Besides, judging from his reply I think boiler knew that.

 

You might also think of getting a re-entry permit, depending on how long you're going to be gone. That way you can be sure as possible of getting back in. Sorry, I'm not sure what the qualifications are for getting it, but you might look into it if your visit abroad could stretch on.

You are the one that needs to apologize to Boiler. 

Disagree, but thanks for your input!

You may want to read up on maintaining LPR status.

 

Immigrants choosing to travel outside the US should be careful of their time outside the US to maintain their status.  Their LPR status can be abandoned for spending too much time outside the US.

 

A US citizen can be abroad forever and have zero problem coming back to the US.

 

An apology is in order.

*You should read up on International Travel as an LPR would probably be better

 

*There are many options to return on LPR status if intending to stay longer than anticipated.

 

*US citizens need to either have residency status in another country or proper visas with required return ticket to the US to stay outside the US. One of the questions  on the CBD Form 6059B is, ( How long have you been outside the US?). And yes,  they do you ask you at port of entry and yes, you do have to prove why you have been outside the US or extended periods. 

 

apologies are always required by the misinformed
