Immigration of green card relatives stopped.

The solution to your problem is as follows:

Maintain the identity of "green card"

We have three suggestions on how to maintain the legitimacy of the "green card":

1. Leave the United States for no more than 179 days (6 months) at a time.

After staying in a foreign country for half a year, the US Customs will suspect that the green card holder did not leave the country temporarily when he entered the country, thus inferring that he does not meet the requirements for permanent residence in the United States.

It should be noted that the practice of/kloc-returning to the United States within 0/79 days (6 months), but staying in the United States for only a few days, and then leaving the country again, may also be considered as not meeting the conditions for permanent residence status.

2. Fully prepare the evidence of temporary departure.

Such as purchasing round-trip air tickets, filing annual personal income tax, American employer's certificate, holding American official approval documents (driver's license), children's admission certificate in the United States, American real estate certificate and so on.

Returning to the United States as soon as possible, it is very important to provide relevant evidence under uncontrollable circumstances.

3. Green card holders who really need to leave the country for more than 180 days due to inevitable reasons must go through the following procedures according to different situations.

Re-entry permit, if green card holders know in advance that they will leave the United States for more than one year, they must apply for re-entry permit in advance before leaving the United States, which is often called "travel permit".

This certificate can only be applied in the United States. After the applicant submits the application form I- 13 1 to the immigration service center near his place of residence, if the information is complete, he will receive an acceptance letter from the immigration office, and then he will receive an appointment to take fingerprints within a few weeks.

After completing the fingerprint entry according to the notified time and place, you can leave the country directly without waiting for the issuance of documents.

Resident visa (SB- 1 visa) for returning to the United States. According to American immigration law, if the holder of American green card stays outside the United States for more than one year, he needs to apply for a special immigrant visa to restore his permanent resident status when he returns to the United States. This visa is called "application for returning to American resident status" or "s b- 1 immigrant visa".
