CAN WE NOT DEFEND OUR GREENCARD STATUS AT U.S PORT OF ENTRY, IF APPLICATION DS-117 IS NOT APPROVED FOR SB-1 VISA

[dinesh410]

Hi,

Will someone help us. Our more than 20 years of GC has not been recognised by U.S Embassy, as there were telegraphic questions/answeres across the window. Our application DS-117 to Determine Returning Resident Visa Elligibilty has not been approved. Consular did not see or wanted to discuss the tons of evidences we had carried showing our strong Economic Ties. As per them, we should have immediately returned after after initial COVID vaccination was done. They did not listen to our Vulnerability Aspect (being 66 yrs old with chronic serious ailments). We had left USA on issuance of Reentry permit with all intions to return to USA. We were stuck up abroad merely because of COVID pandemic, worldwide. 

Our both children are U.S permanent residents and are studying in USA. Our family of 4 will be broken at a time when our Children need us badly and we are also dependent upon them (being retired now). We just got our Medicare Card and Retirement Benefits elligibility.

Have we lost of Green Card? Can we defend our case on one to one basis at U.S POE and  face immigration Judge (if necessary) there or make an appeal.

PLEASE HELP
