Forfeited green card- how to visit the US on ESTA..

I lived in the states for years, married a US citizen and got my 10 year green card in 2017. The same year we made the decision to move to the UK (where I am a citizen). We are here permanently.

We didn’t file for a re-entry permit when we left (it all happened fast) and I haven’t filed forms to officially forfeit my green card.

I am absolutely fine with forfeiting it but if I was to visit the US (whenever we are allowed to travel again) with my US citizen spouse and US daughter, do I travel on an ESTA? Will I have issues being allowed in?

We have a home in the UK, jobs and our child is enrolled in school here so we have no intention of staying in the US we just want to visit to see grandparents.

Any advice would be appreciated. Happy to hire an immigration lawyer here if need be I’m just not sure how complicated the case is...

N-400 form {"data":null,"error":{"developerMessage":null,"userMessage":null}} message

A few questions: I filed my N400 naturalization on March 23, 2020. Nearly one year later on Feb 2021 they sent me a notice that they'll reuse my biometrics from my green card application, but they won't refund the biometric fee! At the same time April 2021 showed up on my account as the expected completion date. Last week, the status was "17 days". Today the estimated time of completion has disappeared!!! Any idea what that means? More importantly - When I click on "View PDF" link under "N-400 Application for Naturalization", to see my actual N-400 form, I get " {"data":null,"error":{"developerMessage":null,"userMessage":null}} " message! The form is also missing under "Documents -> Your Uploads" tab! So, it appears that my N400 form is missing! What does that all mean, considering that it's impossible to file without N400 form! Finally, under profile, My name is incorrectly sp...

NVC Case FE Review note

Hi everyone, my family and I are under the F3 category and we just received a notice from NVC that our documents have been approved and that we are Documentarily Qualified. My only concern is this message that we received today in addition to the acceptance: ​ " [Name of petitioner] does not meet the minimum income requirement to sponsor the intending immigrants for this case. The consular officer will make a decision regarding this requirement at the time of the interview. For more information, please visit https://www.uscis.gov/i-864p . To avoid delays, an additional Affidavit of Support Form I-864 for a joint sponsor may be submitted." ​ We already have a petitioner and a household sponsor (the household sponsor's income is above the required level), but still unsure why we received this. Has anyone else received this message? All of our documents say "Approved" on NVC. Does this mean we have to find another sponsor? Can we show the consular officer our ...
