Travel Documents for US Lawful Permanent Resident

My questions are:

1) What is the process of applying for a new re-entry permit for a US lawful permanent resident? (Should I send my previous re-entry permit, which is expiring soon, and the new application together?)

2) Is studying at the University of a foreign country or tending aged parents considered to be bona fide reason to apply for a re-entry permit multiple times?

3) Must a person file tax returns even he/she does not work for a long period of time?

Thank you in advance!
