We don't have the card. We have purchased another ticket through Germany

The stamp guarantees entry through US borders and not borders of other countries. Heck, countries that exempt GC holders can choose to go back to require transit visas for green card holders to travel through their borders; US doesn't control this. Even US requires transit visas for everyone (including permanent residents of other countries) transiting through it's borders except VWP. 
It's best to do your due delegience and research before booking a flight especially if transit is involved.

I do not see what BA did wrong.

Are the Parents illegal?

Not an issue as long as the joint sponsor can document sufficient income.

Ha. Like everyone waiting will just get pregnant. Then boom expedite to game the system.

Usually a life or death situation is what is required to expedite. However, I have seen expedites approved for lesser things than that. So feel free to try. Since you are at NVC stage, you'll need to send your expedite request to the embassy through NVC. Embassy has final say. Also, the Embassy in Ghana is backlogged to the extent that even if you are approved for expedite it will not necessarily mean faster processing. Good luck.

"
I have been waiting for a very long time for my relative to get an immigrant visa. Now there is a family emergency and I need my relative to immigrate soon to the U.S. Can NVC help me?
If a visa is available for your relative’s category, and their case involves a life or death medical emergency, processing of your case may be expedited. To request a review for expedite, please submit a scanned letter (or statement) to NVCExpedite@state.gov from a physician (or medical facility). The letter must include the physician’s (or medical facility’s) contact information, and declare a life or death medical emergency exists."

That's not my experience. I always add beneficiary emails and they have always received exact same correspondence as me including interviews. And NVC actually encourages this.

Just answer any questions truthfully, but don't volunteer any information if they don't ask.

NVC will send the info to anybody whose email is in CEAC regardless of whether you petitioner or beneficiary. You can have multiple emails in CEAC.

They sought entry presumably on a B
 
They were inspected
 
They were admitted
 
They overstayed
 
They are being petitioned by a USC child
 
Overstays are forgiven
 
There are no other issues
 
That is it

He WILL lose.

Did you have income in 2023 elsewhere ? If yes, you have to declare it (and you may fall under foreign income tax exclusion and not pay any tax to IRS). This will also make things easier (if you do file tax return) when you file N-400 and have to answer the question about whether you have ever not filed a tax return...

Yes, you don't have to file separately if you and your husband continue filing as MFJ. MFJ is one tax return filing for you both. 

To clarify, we will continue filing as MFJ. So does that mean I don't have to file separately if we continue filing as MFJ? Pardon my confusion and ignorance; I'm used to the Indian tax system and this is very new to me.

And this should be my husband and I. It's a joint tax filing so you are equally filing with him whether your income is $0 or not. There's a reason he's filing MFJ because he's getting more money back in returns using his spouse (you). If he's filing as MFJ this year then you don't need to do anything extra, it's a joint filing. And the joint filing your income will be $0 if you earned no income last year. 
If you are guys are fling MFS this year, then you as an individual are not required to file if earned no income last year. Or you can still file with $0 income MFS, it's up to you.

You guys won't continue filing as MFJ? 
2025 tax retun filing is for income made in 2024, 2024 filing is for income made in 2023, and so forth. So since you started working this year (2024), your US income will included in 2025 tax filing.
