Hi Peter, I recently received my green card after having held H1B for the maximum 6 years. That's great but what do I do if I want to work outside the US, perhaps remotely for a US company? I gather the Green Card expects me to have certain sorts of attachments or days/year in the US. Also of course I don't want to pay income tax twice. My long-term domestic partner is a US citizen.
- proberts 9y agoThere are certain presumptions, that is, being outside the U.S. for at least 6 months or 1 year, that can cause problems but if these presumptions aren't triggered, the analysis focuses on intent: is your stay outside the U.S. temporary and is your intent for the U.S. to continue to be your permanent place of abode. If it is likely that you will be outside the U.S. for more than 6 months, then you should get a reentry permit (which is applied for using USCIS Form I-131).
