How do you say when you go somewhere without knowing a date of return?
Are the following ok?

-I'm going to the US indefinitely.
-I'm going to the US with no return date.
-I'm going to the US and don't know when I'll come back.

Thank you.

Question

How do you say when you go somewhere without knowing a date of return?

-I'm going to the US indefinitely.
-I'm going to the US with no return date.
-I'm going to the US and don't know when I'll come back.

Thank you.

Answer

The first and third option seem the most natural to me. Also, "I am going to the U.S. and don't know when I'll return".

Answer

Hi! All of them are ok to say :) 
You can also say 'I'm going to the US and I don't know when I'll BE back' or 'I'm going to the US and I'M NOT SURE when I'll come back'.

Answer

I'm going to the US, I don't know how mich time I'll spend there.

When you use the word indefinitely you have to use more formal/higher level words toake the sentence seem more natural because the word indefinitely is a more formal word.

So you would say something more like, I am staying in the US indefinitely. Not using more common verbs like "to go".

Answer

All are perfectly fine to say.

I would probably change 'come' to 'be' in the 3rd statement, but it's fine the way you have it.
