How long have you been out of the US? Assuming it is longer than a year, your greencard is very unlikely to get you back in, as they'd consider you to have abandoned your residency. However, as you previously successfully applied for a visa, and left lawfully when the relationship didn't work out, you should be able to get a tourist visa without too much trouble (I don't think you can go back on the VWP once you held a visa? Not 100% sure).l

Once you have a previous immigration violation you cannot use the VWP. (I assume the I-601 waiver was for a previous violation?) You have to apply for tourist visa.

Nothing I say is legal advice. I recommend you consult a qualified immigration attorney for any questions you may have.

Not really. She just asked for him to contact her off the board - he asked a question which others can answer.

All we can really do if we don't have an answer to his question is our level best not to promote some lame arsed message board fight.
