Travelling with 2 year Green Card

Am I right in thinking I can leave the US as many times in a year as I like and for what ever length of time I like as long as it doesnt exceed 1 year?

ON my return to the US do I join the American Citizens line at the POE or the Tourist line? Do I fill out the Green or White customs form?

Thanks

Yes to the first paragraph.

You use the "US Citizens and Perm Residents" line.

When you talk about a "green or white customs form", I think you are referring to the I-94. Correct? This is not a Customs form, it is your entry record. You fill out neither of these, because you are a permanent resident. However, there is another white form that you must fill out, and that one really is for Customs.

As long as you maintain the US as your principle residence and are also not interested in becomming a US citizen. If you are, you should limit your trips to less than 6 months out of the US in a stretch and review the instructions for naturalization. Yoiu might also find it handy to keep a diary of your travel dates for the future; it can be a pain to reconstruct them if you ever do file for naturalization.
