Hello,
I have few questions.
Q1.)If a Permanent Resident with a Green Card for past 24 months leaves US with Re-entry Permit and returns just few days shy of a year, does the continuity of residence reset to zero?
Does the 30 month continuity of residence regulation start all over again?
Q2.) What happens if you already have 30 months of continuous residence and then you leave with Re-entry Permit for over six months but less than a year?
Do you lose the continuity of residence again or since you already have 30 months of continuous residence at one point, you can then apply for citizenship once you've had the GC for 5 years?
Q3.) Let us say you have 30 months of continuous residence but you have been outside the US few times with absences of each duration around a month (let’s say 3 months in total absences), are these absences taken away from the total of 30 months?
So you effectively have only 27 months of continuous residence?
Thanks for any help in advance.
