Hello,   If your daughter has a green card and leaves the U.S. for 2 or 5 years, she will lose her legal permanent residency status or green card. This is because as a legal permanent resident, she is required to live in the U.S. You are better off consulting with a local immigration attorney in your area to see how best you can proceed before you make a decision.
