I'm a US citizen I'm currently employed by an American company. I live and work overseas as I'm on an international company sponsored assignment I've been visiting the US quite often on business and each time the immigration officer has asked "how long have you been overseas". I know that a citizen can live/work overseas indefinitely and there should be no issue as long as they file taxes etc and be in good standing with IRS.
I may need to remain overseas for a few years and may also change jobs (may not even work for a US company). My question is - will immigration care how long I've been out of the country ? If I come back after 3 years, let's say, can the period of absence potentially lead to any issues ? Everthing I've read said there shouldnt be an issue, but their "how long have you been away" questions worries me a bit.
Thanks !
