Does anyone of you been out of US for 5 mos with conditional green card and doesn't have any problem coming back in US? And will this affect removal of conditions later? My husband is a missionary in the Philippines. We're planning on going back August or September. I will have my removal of condition on February and will be back in US in January.

I know you can go out in US for 6 mos. having GC and will need re entry permit if you'll be out for 1 yr.

Would it be to risky for me to do this? Please let me know about your story and what you think.

Topic moved from OFF TOPIC to WORKING AND TRAVELING DURING US IMMIGRATION.

Don't just open your mouth and prove yourself a fool....put it in writing.

It gets harder the more you know. Because the more you find out, the uglier everything seems.

Shouldn't a problem. Make sure you continue to build your bona fide's for removing of conditions. Keep a good record of your travels together.

ETA: You won't be able to file for ROC before January 15th of 2012, but must file before April 14th of 2012.

My husband was gone for a week shy of 6 months and he breezed right through POE without any questions.

You should not anticipate any problems. You should, however, anticipate the Immigration Officer asking you what you were doing for 5 months in the Philippines.

"My husband is a missionary" should cover it 100% and will most likely result in a "welcome back home" response.

There is no room in this country for hyphenated Americanism. When I refer to hyphenated Americans, I do not refer to naturalized Americans. Some of the very best Americans I have ever known were naturalized Americans, Americans born abroad. But a hyphenated American is not an American at all . . . . The one absolutely certain way of bringing this nation to ruin, of preventing all possibility of its continuing to be a nation at all, would be to permit it to become a tangle of squabbling nationalities, an intricate knot of German-Americans, Irish-Americans, English-Americans, French-Americans, Scandinavian-Americans or Italian-Americans, each preserving its separate nationality, each at heart feeling more sympathy with Europeans of that nationality, than with the other citizens of the American Republic . . . . There is no such thing as a hyphenated American who is a good American. The only man who is a good American is the man who is an American and nothing else.
