As a GC holder I’m planning to travel abroad for 2,5months starting late September.

My lease is up on 8/31 and I don’t want to commit to another lease, to save money until I’ll be back to the US in December.

Is this going to jeopardize my resident status? Can I go without a lease?

Desi folks - question on travelling outside US while you're on L1B visa. I have my valid visa stamp till 2022. Do any of you know if we can travel to India in Dec and come back in Jan? Or is it affected by the Trump executive order that was passed in Jun that said non-immigrant workers can't enter the country till Dec 31? Just wondering if I leave for holidays, will I not be allowed back. Any sort of clarification you might have is helpful. FYI - I was in US before that June ruling came out. Thx

My friends bought me an amazing tasteing whiskey but the store they bought it from doesn’t have anymore. No one else in the area does(I live in CT). I even drove into Rhode Island and came up empty.

I understand that the lagavulin 12 is rarer than the 16, but is that much better than the 16? My local binny's has the 12 (limited cask strength 2018) for $150, and the 16 for $89.99.

Hoping this gets more traction as most are WFH. Also happy I just found this bowl.
