I work for an all remote US based company of around 50 people. Our small company is under a larger holding company.

I just got back from abroad where I traveled and worked for four months. A week after I was back I got an email from our CEO asking for my return date (thought I was still abroad) as “anything longer than 180 days would cause legal and business issues and would acquire special approval”.

I want to travel again in the new year and am wondering if I should ask for permission again or just tell them where I’m headed. Worried “asking” if I can do it will give them opportunity to refuse.

I’m probably just overthinking the email I received…

Hi everyone, I’m fairly new to this lifestyle and community. I’m currently back in the US but I just spent 4 months exploring Mexico and Guatemala and it was awesome! A week after I arrived back home I got an email from my CEO asking for my return date as “anything longer than 6 months will need approval and might cause business and tax issues”.

I’m young and dumb and confused on why? My guess is that they thought I was in Mexico the entire time and you can only stay on a tourist visa for 6 months?

Thoughts? Leaving in the new year again and now a little worried to tell my manager my travel plans
