I received my conditional green card in September of 2019, based on marriage to a US citizen. At that point we were both residents of the US and had been married for 21 months.
I left the US on July 27 2020 to take up residence in my home country. I applied for and received a reentry permit before leaving the US, expiring 09/03 just as my GC. We're currently residing in a Schengen area country (travel ban).
Our daughter is an American citizen and carries an American passport. She's less than two years old, born in the US.
We would like to attend a wedding in October. It's clearly not an issue for my husband or daughter to enter the US, but I'm unsure about my situation. My understanding is that since I've abandoned my US residence for more than 12 months, I'm technically no longer an LPR. I have yet to apply for an extension, but as I am aware, I am only able to do so if I had us residence. I do have a permanent US mailing address that is not a PO or such, and an active phone number.
Can I apply for an extension? Am I no longer an LPR now? I've seen that dependents and spouses of US citizens can be exempted from the travel ban, but would that apply to me? Is it unreasonable to think I'll be able to enter as a spouse under the current ban?
