Hi all,
I am a GC holder. I am planning to go back to my home country and stay there for a year and a half. I think I need to apply for a re-entry permit. But during that period, I will visit the US several times. Then, can I use the re-entry permit to get in and out of the US for the next one year and a half or is the permit invalid after the first visit to the US after I got the permit.
Thanks for your help in advance.
 
Re-entry permits are valid for multiple entries for upto 2 years from date of issue.
Please factor in the delays in getting re-entry permits. Currently it is backlogged by more than one year. It is issued only at BCIS Nebraska Service Center and they are processing applications filed in June 2002. I filed my application in Feb this year and I am still waiting.
 
timely approval

Thanks for the reply.
I heard I can leave the US after I apply for the permit and need to come back to the US permanently within a year if the permit is not issued in a year. Is this true?
Thanks.
