Hi,

I am in panic mode now and really needed help with my situation from various perspective.
I am PR since 2005 but just last year I applied for Citizenship while I am working in overseas.
I do keep my house, bank and file tax in US and Here is my immigration status.

- 2005: GC
- 2010: Relocation to overseas due to work. Got Re-entry permit
- 2012: Reapplied for Re-Entry as my stay was getting longer. Approved, but never received the permit in mail.
(USCIS will not reissue the permit no matter what)
- 2012: Applied for N400. Got finger printing done.
- 2013: Interviewed but received continuance status notice with a list of documents to be sent.

Issues: Notice requires that I need to explain my stay outside of US in 2011 which lasted more than 6 mons.( happned twice between 2011-2012. I didnt think much because I had reentry permit) & my relocation was due to work. All this by 4/27!!

Here is what I can submit.- 2011-2012: bank statment, mortgage statement, tax returns....i cannot think of my other info i can provide.
- I am working for my previous company's sister company in overseas. So i can provide job/position offer letter I got at that time. During the interview she ask me about company i work for. I told her my job was in US before the relocation but I currently work in overseas company now).


QUESTIONS
1. Should I just drop my case since they might deny my case due to my long stay in overseas and possibly revoke my GC? I heard that deny record will show when I go through the custom. Then just try to maintain my GC by making enough visit to US.
2. Or I can try to submit the documents they require with letter explaining how I had to take the job at that time and how I am planning to come find a different job soon.

Please help~
