请问8老师，我取得绿卡不到一年，如果公司派我到海外长期工作，会影响我申请公民吗？时间该怎么算？谢谢！
-It depends on whether you are qualified for N-470 filing. If you are qualified for N-470 filing, it will not affect it (it is equal to your stay in US). But you still need to apply for the reentry permit (RP) to stay outside US no matter whether you file N-470 or not. RP can allow you to stay outside US for maximum two years, and you can come back to US to renew it before it expires.
Here are some links for N-470 filing (you may consult a lawyer):
