You can enter after 12 months and if CBP has any issues you ask to be paroled in and see a judge.  Don't surrender your green card and don't sign anything.

Asking this for a friend.

 

my cousin has a GC, he usually enters US every 4 months & return to home country. So far, for past 3.5 yrs he has been doing that. Last trip was in mid-Feb. If he get stuck oversea due to Covid-19 for more than 6 months, what should he do? @Paul & Mary

If you decide to travel abroad or are already outside the United States:

• Consider returning to your country of residence immediately using whatever commercial means are available.
• Have a travel plan that does not rely on the U.S. Government for assistance.
• Review and follow the CDC’s guidelines for the prevention of coronavirus.
• Check with your airline, cruise lines, or travel operators regarding any updated information about your travel plans and/or restrictions.

Maybe stop using your green card as a glorified tourist visa?

If he has a GC then the USA is his home country.

If you come back after 12 months you will be denied entry into the US. If i were you i would try and come back as soon as possible. Unfortunately with the current immigration climate as is, you do not to be careless with some of these things. In short, come back as soon as possible.
