Last year my wife obtained her Green Card and Social Security Card. For the last few months we have been staying in Mexico. I was told by somebody, that she cannot be out of the country for more than six months, or she will lose her immigration status. She wants to become a U.S. citizen. Is this six-month rule true, or was someone giving me incorrect information?
Please help as if she must return within 6 months, she must go back within 12 days. Time is running out. She has been taking care of me as I have been very ill and I am receiving medical treatment here in Mexico. If she must return, what documents must she show upon landing in the U.S. - her Green Card? I don't know if someone is giving me misinformation or if I really need to get my wife back quickly to the U.S. Pleas help!
