trying to stay abroad under the limit

score:2

Accepted answer

Since I'm not sure how the clock works and when it resets, I'm finding it hard to plan an itinerary.

The rule is about staying 180 days abroad continuously. It's not about staying less than 180 days abroad per year.

Note that whatever you do, the US immigration officers have the discretion to interpret the rule whichever way they want. E.g., staying 5 months abroad, coming back to the US for a few days, and going abroad again for 5 months may not be appreciated (e.g., may fail the continuous residence requirement test).
