what are the grounds for citizen qualification if a green card holder is employed to an international company and is stationed out of country most of the 5 years they have attained US residency. can you still qualify for citizenship after having your green card for 5 years considering you haven't physically been in the US due to the nature of your employment.

Without knowing all your details, I'm speculating you have a bigger issue of maintaining LPR status than qualifying for citizenship.

Pretty sure that one of the requirements for citizenship is to be in the country the majority of the time.

• Demonstrate continuous residence in the United States for at least 5 years immediately preceding the date of filing Form N-400.

• Show that you have been physically present in the United States for at least 30 months out of the 5 years immediately preceding the date of filing Form N-400.

Even for LPR you must show that you have remained inside the US with residency for a certain amount of time or you can lose your permanent resident status...

Without specifics, as it was stated, you might want to worry more about keeping you perment residency before worrying about citizenship.

Then you should reapply for a green card when you plan on relocating to the US more permanently.
