Hi All,
I am a GC holder and i have plans to stay outside of US due to family reasons in my home country. Hence i am looking to apply for Form i131 re-entry permit which allows me to stay outside of USA for maximum 2 years (from the i131 approval date), ensuring that i intent to maintain my residency with the USA.
Due to my official reasons, i might have to travel to USA once or twice in a year from my home country for business trips.
Below is my query:
After the i131 re-entry approval, Can i make multiple short trips back to USA for my official reasons within the 2 years validity of Re-entry permit?
If yes, does it impact my existing re-entry permit in any form?
Does my existing re-entry permit gets cancelled if i travel back to USA before 2 year approval limit, and do i need to apply to new re-entry permit if that is the case?
I couldn't find any clarity with reference to multiple short trips back to USA on USCIS website, hence thought to connect on this forum.
Any leads would be highly appreciated!
Thanks,
