    Issue with a trip that lasted more than 6 months but have reason for it, advise pls

    Yes, she had the physical presence (30 months). I think the issue was that specifically between 1995 and 1996 she made three trips to India for three-four months months each and returned to NYC for a month or two in between. So in that 18 month period, she had spent in total about 11 months in...

    Issue with a trip that lasted more than 6 months but have reason for it, advise pls
