An acquaintance who has been a green card holder for several years told me, he reentered USA after spending over 2 years outside.
He consulted friends of mine and me and we told him that GC is generally invalid if you spend 1+ years outside without reentry permit or 2 years without SB-1. Knowing that, he went to US consulate where he was rejected for SB-1. Nevertheless, he decided to take a flight into USA trying to re-enter.
And you know the result. He is back in the USA boasting about his experience telling us we were scaring him and giving him bad advice. What do you think? Is he now in clear? I guess they can always go back and inquiry about past trips like that?
