How long will it takes to apply for the permit? I have green card,but my family is planning on taking a very long vacation, we might be needing this permit and we would like to celebrate Christmas with family in the Philippines.Do i have enough time to apply for it and received it here before leaving?
 
One issue you may not be thinking about: a departure of over 6 months can break your continuous presence and can reset the 5-year clock toward qualifying for US citizenship.

Per USCIS, "absences of more than six months but less than one year shall disrupt the applicant's continuity of residence unless the applicant can establish that he or she did not abandon his or her residence during such period"
