My conditional EB-5 green card is expiring in the next 6 months. I have an international business trip coming up and need to go out of the States for a month and enter back into the US. Would there be any constraints, as my GC has less than 6 months of validity? Are there any steps I can take in advance to avoid any issues?

When this is filed, you will get a Receipt extending evidence of your green card status for another 48 months while the I-829 is pending.
