Hello, i'm a lawful permenant resident. I received my greencard 4 years ago on the base of family ties. I have since been traveling for less than 1 year and then returning to the U.S. I am currently a student in Israel. I thought at the beginning that staying less than a year outside the U.S would be fine but apparently I was wrong. I did that for 3 times and visited for short periods of time. I feel like i've made a HUGE mistake. Last time I arrived at the U.S for 8 days when an immigration officer told me I would have to issue a re-entry permit when I get home. he wrote "i-327 advised" on my passport. I think I misunderstood him because I left the U.S recently without issuing the re-entry permit, realizing later on that I had to be present in the U.S for biometrics and to file the i-131 form. I am very stressed about this. I have a brother who currently lives in NY but I have yet to open any bank accounts, and have not filed tax income reports whatsoever. I DO plan on making the U.S my home after I finish school ( in approximately a year and a half) but now I fear that even when I'll go back to the u.s to file the re-entry permit they won't let me in to do so. What can I do?
Thanks in advance.
Thanks in advance.
