Allowed entry but parolled

On what basis was he trying to enter?

 

There is no waiver which is why the question presumably died.

 

They cannot deny him entry they can take his GC and refer him to an IJ.

 

Wonder of he will get a NTA.

 

I am not sure she did it right or there is something missing, taking what we have the I 90 could be the way to go.

 

They never asked him what basis he was trying to enter. They told him if he'd gone with ESTA he wouldn't have had any issues. 

 

I think in the end they allowed it based on being the parent of an American child, but his intention was to come here to live and work as an LPR once he got his green card renewed. 2 of my children and I had already moved back to the US and we won't be leaving again.

A legal resident doesn't qualify for VWP.   Have you spoken to an attorney?

Sounds like no I-407 was signed.  Therefore, he is still a legal resident.  I don't think the officer handled this correctly. Personally, I would file the I-90 online immediately.  I don't understand why he would have to leave the US. 

 

There is no USCIS field office in London. 

 

No, no I-407 signed. I didn't think the officer handled it correctly either. Thank you, we will do that then. 

 

Ah I didn't realize, I guess if he had to go back we'd have to find out where to go then. Hopefully it doesn't come to that!

Even if he had to file an I-485 to start over, he would not have to leave.

 

 

Could he get permission to work here while we wait? He's our only source of income.

Why was he trying to hide his GC when he was seeking entry based on it?

Quote

My husband went through Ireland, and the CBP officer saw his green card (he accidentally had it in his passport). The woman said 'oh you have a green card you can go.' but she was going to scan it so he told her it was actually expired, and it all went downhill from there.

I would file the I-90 and wait for their response before worrying about the I-485.

I would also recommend consulting an immigration attorney.

Ok, I will see what we can do. I'm a bit wary of immigration attorneys, the last one we consulted stole £3k from us 😕 (for a different matter, but it still makes me very wary).

A Lawyer will be able to find out what happened

HES BEEN APPROVED!! We applied March 25, he had his biometrics appointment yesterday and literally walking out of the building got the notice they are processing it. 

 

I got a notice at 4:43 am that action had been taken on his case, to see this:

 

 

Card Is Being Produced

We have approved your Form I-90, Application to Replace Permanent Resident Card

 

 

They had said it would be 6 months to make a decision from yesterday, it was less than 24 hours!
