temporary traveling abroad with conditional green card? Dangerous? PLEASE HELP

[bahamamama234 25]

The lines that I have seen during my international travels are US Citisen/Resident and visitor. Go with your husband and go to the CBP agent together as you are a family and only have to complete a single Customs Delcaration Form. They seem to be a bit easier on GC holders when the USC spouse is standing right there. The last time we enter together the CBP ask how long we were outside the country twice--I guess she did not like my first answer of "oh, about three weeks." The second time she asked I said, " twenty-two days." FYI, what happened to you upon arrivng with the visa was normal.

Have a good trip,

Dave

Awesome, you must be a lawyer or something because you seem like you really know what you talk about ! Thank you so much

I read in a forum that some LPR went with the US citizen Spouse in the US citizen line and got charged with the felony of ''trying to pretend he was a US citizen'' and lost his residence ....

My GC is the temporary one, will expire February of 2017, till there I have to send the form for the 10 Years one

Even if by any chance the lines happen to be [uS CITIZEN] [GC HOLDERS] [VISITOR] even this way I should go at [uS CITIZEN] with him?

Have a blessed week!

KayDeeCee and the other respondents to your question are spot on, just enjoy your trip and we hope your father is well, and, to put your mind at ease, we have traveled to Thailand 3 times, been in the U.S.citizen line together 3 times, and the wife doesn't even have a green card yet.

I just came back from a 3 week visit to Australia, it was just my son and I not my Husband. It was the easiest time I have ever had going through Immigration. My name is different on my passport and GC so I just carried my marriage certificate with me, but was never questioned. All I had to do was verify my fingerprints with their little scanner on the desk and they asked my son what I was to him (with him being a minor I guess) and that was it and that was at LAX where they are renowned for being a bit tough on GC holders. It was a really pleasant experience to be honest, no grouchy officers mean mugging or anything. I think if you walk in with confidence they tend to leave you be, if you look all nervous they tend to single you out (all to do with the training they do to read body language I imagine). Don't be nervous you will be fine, I hope all goes well for your Father's surgery

Thank you !! It was very sweet of you to post such a sincere and nice reply,

Did you went with your son in the US citizen line? what did it said above the line you used?

Thank you again and Thank you about my father, I am sure it will all work out

They actually had Officers asking if anyone was a GC holder and put us in a separate line (shorter line than even the US citizen line)....they scan your fingerprints to make sure they match your GC, I am not sure if all the desks have the scanner or not....but everytime I have gone through immigration at the airport (usually LAX) they always have GC holder lines.
