Q: Can I reenter the US on a tourist visa waiver (I'm Irish) if my green card (through marriage) has expired?
My i-751 was filed in March and is still processing. My green card was extended for a year until April 9th 2018. I am traveling at the moment and my husband and I have separated since the form was filed. I do not plan on returning to the US to live and work, but will need to go back to get my stuff and see friends, for probably a month or two. I would rather not have to be back in the country by April 9th, so was wondering if I can allow it to expire and simply enter on the visa waiver program (making sure that I have a return flight to Ireland booked before trying to enter). Thank you for your help!
