Hello.
I am on the process of doing my parents I-130 and doing more research about my father's situation.
(Father was a green card holder, his green card expired in 2002 and hasn't been in the US for more than 10 years now. I am a US Citizen and would like to petition for both my Father and Mother.)
I saw a checklist of what I need for the forms and it mentioned there form I407 (record of abandonment of lawful permanent resident status).
Now this link I attached says its from a USCIS Field Office from Rome. I went to the USCIS Field Office here in Boise ID this morning and asked the agent there about this. He said my situation is unusual. He gave me a copy of the form and instructions. I asked if I really do needto have my father submit form I407 before petitioning him but the agent just said that he is not sure. Not much help unfortunately.
I know that if my father got approved and got his Visa and is in his port of entry that the CBP officer may revoke his visa/entry.
Basically I'm unsure on what to do. Should I submit the I-130 or have my father submit the I-407 first?
Thank you.
