Entering US Once A Year

hello.
I've got my GC in April 2013 (when i was in US).
now i study in Israel. also i work in some American company, that allows me during 2 years make relocation to same position in US.

as i know, i can't stay out of US for more than 365 days. also i can't make re-entry permit, because it takes to much time (i have no option to leave my studies and work for a long time).

so the questions are:

1) does it enough to enter US once a year for 1-2 weeks to hold my GC?

2) if i travel to Alaska, does it counted like "i was in US" ?


thank you

1. That strategy often works for a couple of years, but longer than that it becomes very risky.

2. Yes, going to Alaska, Hawaii, Puerto Rico, Guam, US Virgin Islands all count as being in the US.
 
Hey guys,
I have exactly the same problem. I activated my GC in summer 2012 but I am still studying in Germany and can not leave before I did not graduated in 2015. Is it safe to travel every 6 month to the US?
 
Hello. i back with my question again.
i travel to US every 10-11 months

how do i know, if US government wants to cancel my green card?

thank you
