初来乍到,请各位帮忙解读一下:
本人2016年11月份拿到绿卡,直到2018年2月回国,2018年6月再次入境美国呆了三个月,2018年9月至2019年6月都在中国。这段期间已经超过了181天的限制,但是仍然在一年以内。2019年6月持返美证再次入境。我的问题是,如果我打算规划入籍,可以从2016年11月份居住日算起,最快在2021年11月份入籍吗?虽然2018/09-2019/06这段时间不在美国境内,但是本人在美国境内有常用银行账户、信用卡、房产,且持续保税,这些可以补偿出境超过180天打断持续居住的情况吗?我看了一下USCIS网站有关breaks in continuous residence的说法:
An absence of more than six months [more than 181 days but less than one year (less than 365 days)] during the period for which continuous residence is required is presumed to break the continuity of such residence. This includes any absence that takes place prior to filing the naturalization application or between filing and the applicant’s admission to citizenship. [11]
An applicant’s intent is not relevant in determining the location of his or her residence. The period of absence from the United States is the defining factor in determining whether the applicant is presumed to have disrupted his or her residence.
An applicant may overcome the presumption of loss of his or her continuity of residence by providing evidence to establish that the applicant did not disrupt his or her residence. The evidence may include, but is not limited to, documentation that during the absence: [12]
-
The applicant did not terminate his or her employment in the United States or obtain employment while abroad.
-
The applicant’s immediate family remained in the United States.
-
The applicant retained full access to his or her United States abode。
