"...there are two ways outlined in the statute in which the continuity of residence can be broken:
The applicant is absent from the United States for more than 6 months but less than 1 year; or
The applicant is absent from the United States for 1 year or more."
Is this only for citizenship/naturalization and not to maintain a green card?
