"No me importa cuánto tiempo no estarán." ??

In context of the book I'm reading, this sentence must mean, "I don't care how long you will be gone." But I've never seen this construction before - is it common? It sounds more like "you will not be", like it's missing a word or something.

This is common as long as you have have prior context, ie: Vamos a salir afuera de la ciudad o sea, no vamos a estar aquí casi dos semanas...... No me importa el tiempo que no estarán. Context now tells us that the respondant means "..... el tiempo que no estarán aquí en la ciudad."
