    this from my lawyer
    "(2) Permanent residents who anticipate that they will be entering the U.S. infrequently, or who will not reenter the United States within 12 months of departure, are strongly advised to file an application for a Reentry Permit with the USCIS. The valid Reentry Permit must be presented at the time of reentry along with the holder’s alien registration receipt card. The regulations provide that the filing of the application for a Reentry Permit must occur while the applicant is physically within the United States. In order to obtain a Reentry Permit, a permanent resident would have to establish that he or she is seeking the permit in connection with a “good faith” temporary absence, and that there is no intention to abandon permanent residence in the United States. We strongly recommend that individuals who intend to live outside of the United States for a period of time, or will travel frequently outside the U.S., apply for a Reentry Permit prior to leaving the United States."

    • Yeah that doc is about $300 and you can select multiple re-entry. You can't be outside the US for more than 6 months without it, and no more than 12 months at a time with it (without USCIS becoming suspicious).5timuli
