My case is pretty strange. I have family based GC since 1992. From 1992 to 2005 i had been in USA every year between 20-30 days. Every time i returned yo USA within one year ( always absent for more than 6 months). Twice i had applied for parole visa for 2 years and returned to USA within the time allowed in the re-entry permit. I have not paid any tax or filed tax form prior to 2005 as i had not earned anything in USA and my presence had not been more than 30 days in a year. In short and simple i did not get a suitable job here and continued with my job in home country and visited USA on vacation. I never had any problem with immigration or law.
Since July 2005 i have been here permanently. In the last 5 years, I have visited my home country every year for 90-120 days . Total absence 612 days in 6 trips.All trips less than 6 months. I have filed tax in USA for the last 5 years.
I cannot explain my prolonged absence earlier. Should i file N-600??? I am eligible for it now. What are my chances of getting approved. Will filing N400 affect my GC anyway?? It is expiring in 2012. Please advise. Thanks.
