Probably what I'll do is send it by certified mail from outside the US. They say processing time is 60 days, so I'll apply for VWP after that and see what happens.

I know someone who was reluctantly/apologetically told to do it at the POE ( but to mail it in, not on the spot) .. he sent sent it in later... unless your giving it up scam the IRS like this Citizen (below) tried to do I think your will be fine. The fact you are giving it up proves you have no immigrant intent so ESTA or visa should be fine, my Co-worker never reported an issue and have traveled many times since handing it back ... if had immigrant intent you would move / remain here.... I helped a co-worker give his wife’s give PR up once... aka mailed the card to the London embassy snail mail (to save money, much against my better instinct to courier it..)

Re: I-407 at port of entry

Following on the above thread, I note that the consensus is that I 407 at port of entry is not a good idea.
I have the following questions
1. If one submits I-407 and sends it to Vermont, is there is rule to say that on cannot apply for an ESTA, while it is being processed?
2. How long does it take for 407 to be processed?
3. Is the ESTA application process aware that one may have LPR
Thanks in advance.
