lAs a green card holder you must apply and get approval for a reentry permit in case you want to stay outside US for more than a year.

Are green card holders allowed to stay outside the US for more than 6 months and less than 1 year?
Assuming you do not apply for a reentry permit before you leave, the maximum stay is 1 year. If you apply for a reentry permit before you leave, the maximum stay is 2 years.If you wish to stay longer than two years, you will need both a reentry permit and a returning resident visa. You must apply for the reentry permit before you depart the US. You don't necessarily need to receive it before you leave.If you stay longer than 2 years, there is no guarantee you will be able to get a returning resident visa.Note: your US green card may be taken away if your travel record suggests that you reside outside the US more than in the US. So, coming to the US for two weeks every 11 months will at some point result in cancellation of your green card and an inability to return to the US using the green card.
If an alien has received US citizenship does he need a reentry permit if he lives abroad for two years?
If the person is now a US citizen, there is no need to have a re-entry permit in order to be allowed back into the US after ANY length of time (be it 1 year, 2 years or more). Only if the person has a Green Card would it be necessary to apply for a reentry permit if leaving the US for 2 years or more. The time away from the US will not count in the years having lived in the US if the person is trying to meet the requirements to become a US resident. However, someone who is already a US citizen can freely come and go from the U.S. without needing any additional documentation (beyond the normal passport, etc.).http://www.usimmigrationsupport.org/green_cards.html
