How long can American green card holders return to China?

1. Once you have an American green card, as long as you have been away from the United States for less than one year, the green card itself can be regarded as a valid immigration visa, and you don't need to apply for a visa at an American embassy or consulate. If you leave the United States for more than one year, you must apply for a re-entry visa (I-327) before leaving the country. Re-entry visa, as an effective immigrant visa, is valid for up to two years. Cardholders who have not entered the United States for more than a period of time are likely to lose their permanent residency when they enter the country, because the immigration law requires green card holders to leave the United States only temporarily.

Second, ordinary people can only apply for a green card to work in the United States through hard work. After completing their studies, international students can find jobs, be employed by American companies, or be sent directly to the United States by large companies. After working for several years, they can apply for a green card with the support of the company. The United States issues a large number of work visas to foreigners every year. In the past two years, more than 60,000 work visas were issued each year. In the years of new economic expansion, 654.38+200,000 work visas were issued to foreigners on average every year. Everyone who has a job in America applies for a green card, but not everyone's application can be approved.

Third, on the issue of treating immigrants, the United States adopts a pragmatic policy, showing tolerance to foreign immigrants when the economy is good, and strictly restricting foreigners when the economy is bad. In the late 1990s, when the American economy was booming, new york didn't even catch illegal immigrants. Even the owner of the local Chinese restaurant said that he was not worried about this problem at that time, and he rarely heard of the police searching for illegal workers in Chinese restaurants.
