I have spent at least 350 days per year in the USA  across the last 6 years.  I am legally in the USA but I’m not legally recognised as ’resident’ here. Huh?

A US bank gave me a mortgage on a residential property 6 years ago.  I have ‘lived’ 6 years in that property as my primary residence.  I am legally in the USA but I’m not ‘resident’ here. Excuse me?

I pay taxes and social secuirty to the US government, no other government.  I am legally in the USA but I’m not ‘resident’ here. I’m not entitled to any Social Security benefits for my 6 years of payments. I will never be entitled to anything for those 6 years payments to a US government infrastructure.

I  have 2 work-permits and one ‘entry visa’  (Greencard Advanced Parole).   I’m not really ‘resident’ here.  Am I?

I am easily confused.

I am confused.

I am
