I am a US citizen and my mom came to stay with me during the pandemic ( 2021) and 2.5 years later, we finally received her Green Card + SSN+ EAD + Parole documents in Feb 2024.
Since we had been waiting for her Green Card, she wasn't able to go back to India for all these years but now she is dead set on going back at least for a year or at least till Feb 2024
My question is how long can she stay outside the US without getting into problems when returning.
Some places it seems a GC holder can only stay overseas for under 6 months max but some places I read that we can file reentry permit etc. She is 82 and has no desire to be US citizen, just wanted a GC to stay with me in her old age.
Has anyone faced this situation?
