    How many days to Stay out of US with Green Card
    I have the following questions with respect to number of days I can stay out of the country for my situation.

    I have been on green card since June 2010.

    I have visited India from October 17' 2010 to Feb 4' 2011 (Total 111 Days).
    Now I need to go back to India again for around 3 months (Approx 10th May - 10th Aug) which is about 93 Days.

    My questions are:

    1. As a GC holder can I make the above visits without resetting my 'Continuity of 5 Yeard of Residence' clock ? As in each calender year I will not be out of country for greater than 180 days. But, when you count from October 16 2010 - October 15 2011, I will be more than 180 days out of the country.

    2. If answer to the above question is NO, do I need to file/apply for any exception to be out of country?

    Thanks for your advise.
