I am a Japanese citizen in my 50s and have been living in the U.S. with a green card. I would like to return to Japan to take care of my parents, and after their death, I would like to live in the U.S. again with a green card. My parents have no chronic diseases and are in good health. In other words, there is no expiration date on their residence in Japan. I understand that I can only provisionally waive for about 2 years to temporarily return to Japan with a green card. If anyone has ever re-instated after living in Japan with a waiver, I would appreciate your advice.

#It would be easier to stay in Japan.

Can you assure me that it is easier because you have a permanent residence in Japan, Mr. Showa Ototsan ？?

I think that Reinstate is something you apply for when your GC has expired （ and you have been abroad for more than the Re-entry Permit period ）, not when you have given up your GC. I think there is a possibility that you may not be able to get it.

Once you give up, it is a new GC application, so for now, I think you should apply for Reinstate when you can no longer get Re-entry Permit and your GC is not renewed or becomes invalid.　

A permanent resident (called lawful permanent resident or LPR) or conditional resident (CR) who has remained outside the United States for longer than one year, or beyond the validity period of a Re-entry Permit, will require a new immigrant visa to enter the United States and resume permanent residence.

Since Topi seems to be wondering what to do
it would be faster to get US citizenship and "permanent resident" status in Japan.

I don't mind since I returned my green card to the US.

Can you assure me that it would be quicker because you are a Showa Ototto-san and have permanent resident status in Japan ？?
