Hello folks:

My cousin is working temporarily abroad since past six months and has obtained a re-entry permit for 2 years. She has already accumulated the required continuous residency and physical presence (50 months in fact) in the US to file the N-400. Can she come to the US to file and fingerprint and then return to US again for interview and oath.

Will this work? Does anyone have experience on this?

I'll greatly appreciate your advice.
 
If she exceeds a 6 month absence from US then she violates the continuous residence requirement regardless of reentry permit. Net effect will be a clock reset and start new 5 year residency period.

Sometimes it seems people have successfully argued their case and been passed without issue, while others have been rejected. Perhaps its time to consult a lawyer?
 
Also, part of the requirement is that you should have lived in the district for 90 days to apply.
