My father who is 80 years old was a permanent resident of the USA. Then in 2008 he stayed outside of the US for about 18 months, and filled an SB-1 application for a returning resident Visa, and on the interview produced doctor's statement that he was undergoing treatment. The lady interviewer said she wasn't convinced and that he abandoned his residency and refused his application. That incident was in 2009, 4 years ago.
He still has the physical green card which has expired in 2012. Now he feels that he didn't receive a fair assessment and wants to regain his permanent resident status. What can be done now? Is there any appeal process that he can go though? Can he file again for the returning resident visa? Can hiring a lawyer help?
Any advice is much appreciated.
Thanks
