If you are a Lawful Permanent Resident (Green Card holder) planning to travel outside the United States, you need to watch this entire briefing before you head to the airport. As of May 2026, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) have significantly tightened enforcement postures at all ports of entry.

With the launch of the new USCIS Vetting Center and expanded digital tracking, returning home is no longer a simple process. In this video, we break down the three massive rule changes already causing green card holders to face grueling secondary inspections, long delays, and pressure to surrender their status.

📌 Key Topics Covered in This Video:
Rule 1: Mandatory Biometric Capture (Dec 2025): How the elimination of age and nationality exemptions affects your next flight.

Rule 2: Cumulative Travel Vetting: Why taking multiple trips under 6 months is triggering automatic abandonment investigations in 2026.

The Form I-407 Trap: What to do if an officer pressures you to sign away your green card (Know your rights!).

6 to 12 Months: Shifts the legal burden; you are formally evaluated as an applicant seeking re-admission.

Over 1 Year: Automatically invalidates a standard green card for entry unless an I-131 Re-entry Permit was filed before departure.
