Question: how long can green card holder stay outside of USA? This is a frequent question most of permanent resident card holder ask themselves when they are planning to travel abroad.
In this video I do my best to answer this question. A green card holder also known as a permanent resident card holder can only travel outside of US for less than a year with his or her card. If for some raison the card holder decides to travel abroad for more than a year then, he or she will need to apply for a re-entry permits which is valid for 2 years.
