hi MAXMSU, welcome to the site. About the green card, yes, if you want the citizenship, you cannot leave US for more than 6 month in a single year, and no more than one year in the past five years. Contact the INS office for a reentry permit. If you have real estate in U.S. Bring the copy as prove you intent to go back. About going back to china, well, it depends. personally i will not go back to china for another job, cuz i know i m not going to find a job that gives me the same salary level i want, but i will consider going back to expand my business. There are a tons of opportunities out there in china, which really got me excited. also i have to disagree with your in real estate. I m a flipper, i buy houses fix them up and sell them. I love the market right now, it is the best time to buy, hold for 3 years, and the real estate market will always come back after about 3-4 years. let me know if you have any question. I will be happy to answer any. --Eric |
