    Green card holder stayed abroad more than one year
    Hi,
    I have a valid green card till this date. I had family reasons that resulted in my stay outside US for more than one year, and I am planning now to go back to US.

    Is it possible to travel and enter US with my valid green card.

    Thank you.

    No, you cannot enter using just your green card anymore.

    You can try to apply for an SB-1 returning resident visa at a U.S. consulate.
