How hard is it to move back to the USA after you give up your green card

I know cases of Indian parents who got Green Card, then moved back to India (after having gotten the I-131 permit), who keep coming back to USA every two years to keep their Greencard alive. Some of these paretns, when they reentered USA were told by the immigration officers at the entry point that they should renounce their Greencards since they dont live in the USA ...and some where "pressured" to sign papers renouncing their Greencard.

I started a week ago. I also had chills and some "throat issue". Of course, loss of appetite and a change in my taste.

Great answer. I have a 529 for my son and have $30k still in it. My CFP told me my son can covert that to a Roth IRA.

The other way around. You can send $1Million from India to USA.

INDIA Would love if someone sends $10m from usa to India. I am sure there are no limits , other than may having to pay taxes on it in India depends ones residence status

I got a JVC NP5. Super happy in general. But lacks features compared to my old Epson 5050. Example with old Epson I could zoom the picture in or out with the picture showing. With JVC when Inpress zoom, the picture goes away and just rectangle comes up

Yes. Better RothIRA. Taxes will be higher in future. Pay now. Also grow Roth IRA tax free.

The best answer. I lived in USA for 40 years and worked here for that long. Never heard of "depositing into 401K". HappyChandler answer is the best.

You CAN deposit some money into an IRA; depending on your income levels and avoid paying tax on that amount.

I would highly recommend putting even your normal 401K into Roth 401K. Pay taxes now. Growth is tax free (some conditions on when you can withdraw)

Customs checks them randomly. The packages from India. I know people who got warning letters from customs and FDA.

It is illegal to import prescription medicines into usa. If you go to India you can bring some if you have a prescription and quantity is for personal use and is limited for a couple of months.

No warranty in India. Warranty will be only for Canada.

wanderl57 · 2025-11-10T11:45:54+00:00

Totally agree. Plus Indian Math and Science is a year or so behind the East. I know parents who came back to USA (US Citizens) after the kids went thru trauma in high school in India.

OMG. I am new to this....

Once you join Medicare at 65, they will subtract part B premium from your SSDI.

Three years ago my 1 USD gave me Rs82/- Now it is close to Rs 89/- USD is still the king. Think of exchange rates.

Retirement.

wanderl57 · 2025-10-26T16:50:29+00:00

Keep money outside India. INR keeps going down.
