Prepare for questions from CBP.  Don't sign an I407 regardless of how they pressure you especially if you intend to stay in the US as an LPR.

Fly with a different airline. Airlines are not CBP, they have no business asking how long you’ve been out of the US and you don’t have to tell them. 
 

I suppose you can fly to Canada and then cross into the US, but I think that’s too burdensome especially that you have a valid unexpired GC.

Because they said you overstayed

What airline?

 

The airline that denied boarding to U.S. is as likely to apply the same illogic and deny boarding to Canada.

It was PIA 

pakistan international airlines.. what is the best airline that will not apply this illogical excuse

PIA is currently banned from flying to the European Union, the UK, and the US.  What were the exact details of your flight? Which airline was the code share? 

 

Did you volunteer/tell the airline that you had been out of the US for that long?

Emirates, Etihad, Qatar

 

Start with Emirates.

 

If Emirates and Etihad do not board you, book a round trip to Doha on Qatar. Pakistanis have a limited visa waiver for Qatar. See https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Visa_requirements_for_Pakistani_citizens

 

Then once in Doha, book a  round trup flight to Canada.

 

From Canada book a flight from Toronto Island or Regina airports to the U.S. to avoid CBP pre-clearance which IMHO is likely to deny boarding. Or get to the land border.

 

Refuse to sign I-407.
