I understand that the INS laws have been changing dramatically and that they are being very firm with US Residents and time out of the country. I heard that a resident of the US (a Dominican born person with a greencard) can only stay out of the US for up to 6 months - if longer, the greencard can be revoked.
I have a family member who has been in DR for almost a year now and she is scared that they will not let her come back to the US.
What is the best way to find out if this person's Residency is still valid? Is there a number we can call to find out what the real law is? I would hate to buy a ticket and then find out that there were processes that we were supposed to handle before she left the country.
Will this be a Dominican Consulate question or a US? - I ask because I'm trying to find out the correct info to do research online.
Thanks.
