I heard that to keep the green card valid you must not leave the US for more than one year, is it true?
Also any information about how to apply for citizenship but live in another country for a while? Cause I work already in another country and I'm having a good salary that I'm afraid to lose if I left and started to search again in US yet I need to have the passport cause most of my family have it already and I want to later work in US as a citizen. Any accurate info please?
Someone told me that I can apply for the passport and will get it in 3 years if I didn't leave US for more than 6 months, is it true?

If you leave the US for more than 365 days and did not apply in advance for, and receive, a re-entry permit, your green card is no longer valid and you are no longer a US permanent resident.
You cannot apply for US citizenship while living in another country.
The thing that 'someone' told you is erroneous. Applying for US citizenship - not just a passport - is a complex process. Stop asking around among people you know for information that is so important. Go to the folks who really know: USCIS

The officer must have called ICE and had him deported. in case you bypass ahead with this plan, in simple terms keep in mind that everytime he's late coming domicile it would want to point that he has been picked up by using ICE and is being deported. imagine how which will impact your existence! not in any respect understanding even as your spouse and youngsters will be ripped aside! of direction you'll not in any respect understand the authentic reason he married you. become it because he loved you or become it fullyyt to get a "eco-friendly Card?" a strong attempt is to inform him that you want to do it accurate. you want to marry him and bypass to Mexico till he can come legally. Then pay interest to each and each and every of the justifications that he makes now to not bypass back domicile. genuine love is genuine love interior the united states of a or in Mexico, it doesn't count the position you're in case you extremely love one yet another. thousands and thousands of people stay and love in Mexico.
