Dear Sir,

In order to maintain your permanent residency you must adhere to certain requirements which relate to your intent to remain a resident of the United States.

Besides the amount of time you live in the U.S., the USCIS may consider your home, employment and other fators. There is also the possibility of maintaining your green card in a commuter status.

You should consult with an experienced immigration lawyer in order to review your situation in detail.
