this is not true. Everyone who attends medical school outside the United States must go through the process of revalidating their diploma on American soil. which consists of 3 tests, internships...yes it is a long, expensive and exhausting process...but it is totally possible...I am having the opportunity to study at a top quality university in South America...unfortunately I I don't have the financial means - none - to study in the USA. I've tried this in the past, and I don't have the money for it... then this opportunity came up and that's why I'm researching my options... I can't afford to wait 4 years to be able to naturalize.... Opportunities don't wait for me forever... I'm trying to find out more about the Reentry Permit because it seems like the only option - legal - to do what I want to do... but anyway, it's something really stressful... If I knew it was going to be this inconvenience, I wouldn't have let my stepfather apply for my GC four years ago... now I'm stuck here, and it seems like every time I look for a solution when it comes to my medical graduating, I find one million obstacles...

I get it. and ˜˜˜ sorry if I'm being insistent˜˜˜... I just wanted to understand why the Reentry Permit exists if it won't "protect" me from losing the GC? Why does a reentry permit exist then?

I have ve been reading these stories about people coming back after. 8,9,10 years. The problem is that I wanna come back every 4-6 months. The reason Im asking about the Reentry permit is , if that -if exists - its a legal way to stay out of the country and remain a Permanent Resident I just wanna understand more about the process before I make a decisions. I dont wanna break the rules, I dont wanna commit fraud. I just wanna understand what really means to have a Reentry permit in this case

I understand! and looks like reentry permit processing time is more than 1 year...that makes everything even more confuse! if you find any example of case which did not work out, can you share with me?? I need to know everything about this process before I make a decision! and No I dont have a property in the US. only family, friends, bank account. DL, tax returns, things like that

Thank you for all the information and for taking the time to help me. I know it's a really hard decision About the options that you showed me: 1 - I was reading about a Reentry permit, and apparently "there's no offical limit on how many times you can apply for a re-entry permit" . I know in the end of the day CBP do what they want to do , but can you please share with me ~why~ do you think the "reentry permit plan" may not work? My understanding is that if they approve a Reentry Permit, that means they are OK with you being abroad for that "period"? Do you know stories of people who had trouble with CBP/ USCIS even with a valid non-expired reentry permit? 2- this option doesn't work for me because I have family and friends in the US, so I would have to come home every 4 or 6 months. Also I would be spending here all my vacation ( like 2 months every year ). In your opinion coming here often is even worse than stay out for 6 years? 3- getting married is not the case for me 4- I have to wait 3 years and 1 month to apply to citizenship. and even after that, probably more 1 year waiting to get approved...we are talking about more than 4 years....I can't wait that long! I know its a hard decision that I have to make

Dear community I have lived in the USA for 5 years, I came here to study English at first. And for 2 years I have had a GC that I got through my mother's husband My dream has always been to go to medical school, but because of the high costs, costs of education and life in America, since I got my green card, I have worked as a nanny. I have nothing against this type of work but I wanted something more for myself. I am having the opportunity to study medicine in South America, where I will receive the study completely free of charge as my grandparents will pay for it. The problem is that a medical course lasts 6 years Is there any way for me to study in Brazil for 6 years without losing my green card? My whole life is in the USA but I have read that it is not allowed to stay abroad for more than 6 months with the GC. Would you have any suggestions? I will not be able to apply for citizenship in less than 3 years. My plan is to study in Brazil and then return to America to do my medical residency and work here. Any suggestions on how to make this happen without harm my GC
