Wife stuck in Cebu?

Hello to all,

Hope everyone is in good health during these crazy times!
We live in California but my wife went to Cebu on January 4, she has a ten year green card, and was supposed to fly back May 9. She was there to get things ready for me to retire and move to Liloan and spend our lives there, hello Rona, the virus messed with a lot of people’s lives! So she did NOT fly back to California. My dilemma is she will be in Cebu longer than 6 months... will this void her green card ? What can I do? I need her back in California to sign papers on the sale of house and retirement papers! Any suggestions or insight?
Thank you

Did she contact the US Embassy?  Easy to do the STEP program.  They do have flights from Cebu to Manila and then Manila to SF, LA or JFK.  Must be booked through Philippine Airlines, will be very expensive.
