my youte

I should be gone for between 10 and 11 months, though there is a the possibility of staying longer assuming I can get all these ducks in a row. As such I wasn't planning on getting a reentry permit since I probably won't need it and its almost $500 altogether. Can I apply for it while abroad to remain flexible with my plans, or is that something I need to do before leaving?

You would need to get it before leaving. But if you are sure that you will be back then there is no need. Sometimes they question you if you stay more that 6 months. But as long as you can show that you are living here then you should be ok.

Hello all,

My green card will be expiring while I'm studying abroad for a year in Israel. I leave in 2 weeks, my green card expires in 9 months. So its too soon to apply for a new one now. I've been told by USCIS that I can E-File the I-90 while I'm out there and potentially postpone the biometrics appt until I get back, and that my E-File receipt will be enough to get back into the US. But I haven't been able to receive verification from Customs and Border Patrol that this is accurate, because I can't actually find a way to speak with anyone.

Does anyone have any advice on this situation?

First off you may want to look into getting a re-entry permit since you will be going for a year. That is probably the most important thing.
