I got my GC 2 years ago and I have stayed in the US for 3 months every year since then. I have a letter form the consulate stating that one has to be in the US at least once a year. I got to the US (JFK) two month ago and had no problem. I went to visit my relatives in Canada from the US last week and on my return INS told me that since I am not "living" in the US and only visiting I must either surrender my GC or go for a 'Removal Hearing". Now my hearing is scheduled for Nov in Buffalo. I need help to sort this out.
Is this a serious matter and should I hire an attorney - they charge USD 5,000.
If anyone has been though this nightmare please email me any suggestion you have. Also should I move my hearing to NJ. Are the judges in Buffalo fair as I have heard they fry people like me.
