Q: What should I do before leaving the US for an extended period to avoid losing my permanent residency?

A: Before leaving for an extended period, you should apply for a reentry permit if you plan to be out for more than a year, maintain ties to the US, and ensure you have documentation that shows your intention to return and reside in the US. Refer to the Preserving Your Residency section for detailed guidance.
