Do people over 65 have to live in the United States with an American green card?

Older people over 65 don't have to live in the United States to hold an American green card.

But you need to do the following four things:

1. All banks in the United States have an active bank account (of course, the more accounts, the better). The so-called active means that the account balance should change frequently, not for several months. Note that when you spend money with an American bank card in China, or your family uses your bank deposit or credit card in the United States, your account balance can change constantly. This behavior shows that you have an active living expenses in the United States.

2. Buy a house in America. Geographical location, area, type, purchase price and even whether it is rented to tenants are not important, but as long as you buy it, it basically shows that you are willing to stay in the United States for a long time.

School-age children, unless they are too young and their parents are overseas, especially those in middle schools or universities, must strive to study in American schools.

Be sure to file tax returns on time every year, pay taxes when necessary, and fulfill the obligation of being a permanent resident. In fact, there are many other benefits to maintaining a good tax return record in the United States.

First of all, it can help green card holders accumulate supplementary security income.

Second, it helps children to play a huge auxiliary role in applying for universities or middle schools.

As long as the above conditions are met as far as possible, you can return to the United States at least once every 12 months and stay for at least 30 days. Or go back to the United States once every six months, and the residence time is basically negligible.
