als je 3 maanden op vakantie gaat moet je dat zelf weten, je thuisland veranderd op dat moment niet! Ik heb zelf de laatste 5 jaar ongeveer 3 jaar in het buitenland gezeten, zonder visa! Ik zie daar helemaal geen problemen mee! Wat ik bedoelde is dat in de pdf file die je gaf, staat alleen dat je niet kunt vragen om een
immigrant visa, or for
permanent residence, or for a nonimmigrant visa
Over een visa waiver voor vakantie wordt niets gezegd, maar het is misschien beter om even een consulaat te bellen of mailen voor het beste antwoord!

Voor degene die geen adobe acrobat hebben, hier is de tekst uit de file:
Section 212(e) of the Immigration and Nationality Act
(e) Educational visitor status; foreign residence requirement; waiver. No
person admitted under section 101(a)(15)(J) [8 USC §1101(a)(15)(J)] or
acquiring such status after admission (i) whose participation in the
program for which he came to the United States was financed in whole or
in part, directly or indirectly, by an agency of the Government of the United
States or by the government of the country of his nationality or his last
residence, (ii) who at the time of admission or acquisition of status under
section 101(a)(15)(J) [8 USC §1101(a)(15)(J)] was a national or resident of a
country which the Director of the United States Information Agency,
pursuant to regulations prescribed by him, had designated as clearly
requiring the services of persons engaged in the field of specialized
knowledge or skill in which the alien was engaged, or (iii) who came to the
United States or acquired such status in order to receive graduate medical
education or training, shall be eligible to apply for an immigrant visa, or for
permanent residence, or for a nonimmigrant visa under section
101(a)(15)(H) or section 101(a)(15)(L) [8 USC §1101(a)(15)(H) or (L) ] until it
is established that such person has resided and been physically present in
the country of his nationality or his last residence for an aggregate of at
least two years following departure from the United States: Provided, That
upon the favorable recommendation of the Director, pursuant to the
request of an interested United States Government agency (or, in the case
of an alien described in clause (iii), pursuant to the request of a State
Department of Public Health, or its equivalent), or of the Commissioner of
Immigration and Naturalization after he has determined that departure from
the United States would impose exceptional hardship upon the alien's
spouse or child (if such spouse or child is a citizen of the United States or
a lawfully resident alien), or that the alien cannot return to the country of
his nationality or last residence because he would be subject to
persecution on account of race, religion, or political opinion, the Attorney
General may waive the requirement of such two-year foreign residence
abroad in the case of any alien whose admission to the United States is
found by the Attorney General to be in the public interest except that in the
case of a waiver requested by a State Department of Public Health, or its
equivalent, or in the case of a waiver requested by an interested United
States Government agency on behalf of an alien described in clause (iii),
the waiver shall be subject to the requirements of section 214(k): And
provided further, That, except in the case of an alien described in clause
(iii), the Attorney General may, upon the favorable recommendation of the
Director, waive such two-year foreign residence requirement in any case in
which the foreign country of the alien's nationality or last residence has
furnished the Director a statement in writing that it has no objection to
such waiver in the case of such alien.
