Best Answer

Green card holders can travel abroad for a maximum period of 180 days on each trip. If you need to stay outside longer for employment or medical purposes you should apply for reentry permit using the Form I-131 travel document which is valid for 2 years. Also you can use the Form N-470 meanwhile to preserve residence for naturalization process. To prove that you intend to return to US you should maintain either a bank account or own property and pay taxes in US.

If you have stayed outside US for more than 2 years a returning resident visa (SB-1) may help you reenter US.
