In his first post he indicated his friend left on a plane but didn't indicate how he came back to the US. I presume by land as any POE at the airport would've denied entry.

 

He crossed the border illegally yes and flew out of nj to Costa Rica in 2009 and came back shortly after and crossed the border again

Your friend is really a hard knock lol... He should let his lawyer know the truth about the 2009 trip to Cost Rica and illegally crossing the border into the US again, a good immigration lawyer would know how to manage such situation. It is always very important to be very honest with your lawyer from day one.

Does not require a genius to connect the dots, also interested in seeing what happens at the interview.

I’m curious too and if everything goes in his favor I’m curious if they will give him problems at Poe When he flys back

Can come up at all sorts of points, I certainly remember a vaguely similar case where the Waiver issue was picked up at the PoE.

They don’t ask for anything other than a passport to fly out of the us to ur home country... they see he was going home so they probably don’t care too much 

Not true... have you forgotten all about CBPS at the airports or you are suggesting that it is possible to skip them at the airport.

My husband was illegal before and when we flew to his country for the interview they didn’t ask any questions they scanned his passport and we went on our way with no delays or issues

Regardless that’s irrelevant to the question I was asking anyway either way my friend was illegal and flew to his home country with zero problems so clearly they didn’t really care too much

I would really encourage your friend to get some legal advice because I could see the situation ending badly for him otherwise.

 

The fact he filled out a waiver for a separate illegal entry is going to raise a huge flag for his file. I would presume they would be looking at all his entries and departures into the US with more scrutiny because of that.

 

If they ask your friend "did you leave the US to Costa Rica on a plane in 2009" his two options aren't good. He could answer 1) yes I left and when pressed he would have to admit he came back to the US illegally which then could lead to all sorts of bans and repercussions. One of the conditions with an immigration petition is the information provided is truthful 2) if he lies and says "no that wasn't me" they would ask him to produce evidence he never left the US. Since he wasn't in the US he has no evidence. If he gets caught lying to a consulate official or fabricating information that could lead to all sorts of problems such as a lifetime ban.

 

He is really rolling the dice going into that interview.

He had a lawyer or has a lawyer and he was weary of him going to the interview

If his lawyer is even telling him he is rolling the dice how come he is not taking his advice? Does he not understand how serious his situation is?

He is very stubborn so he will do what he wants on his own. I’ve given him my thoughts but he is thinks they won’t find out so he’s gonna go

I'd love to be a fly on the wall during that interview. Please share what the outcome is or if you ever talk to him again.

Why would he have problems leaving? The only thing they might care about is that he left.

 

The issue was entering Honduras and I assume he had a Passport to allow him to do so.
