Hello, When filing the Form I-212, supporting evidence should include proof of the date of departure from the USA. So long as that date is at least 10 years prior, then that element of the case should be satisfied.
what about someone deported 2006 on aggravated felon after serving over a year in jail then deported. Never come back again. Stayed outside USA over 16 years and still in overseas. What he has to do to apply again or he got red card as your partner said.
Hi! This person may be eligible to apply for residency once they’ve been outside the USA for at least 20 years. However, with an aggravated felony on their record, they will likely need to have a very compelling situation for requesting permission to return.
@@jenniferwalkergates5745 Thanks for the reply. BTW, his aggravated felon was non violence i.e. immigration fraud, misrepresentation etc. he has a wife and grown up children whom all are US citizen. Does he has a chance
Hello, I've searching back and forth on all forums and official documents from USCIS but unable to find the answer to my concern. I was caught trying to make an illegal entry back in 2002(10 years old at the time) due to the fact that the person who was bringing me wanted me to use someone else's info. A week or two after being released back to Mexico I was crossed through the desert with a successful entry and I have been here ever since. My main concern is that depending on how DHS or ICE handled my situation and the years I had accrued of Illegal presence would make me subject to the permanent bar if my US citizen wife tries to sponsor me for permanent residence.
Hello, This is a good question, and I need to respond with some additional questions: 1. When you entered in 2002, had you already been in the USA before that for a year or more without lawful status? Or was that your first attempt at entering the USA? 2. Are you in touch with the person who was entering with you? If so, do you know if they have any records about how that encounter was handled/processed (e.g. was it a voluntary return or an expedited removal)?
I was deported in 2020 for aggravated felony of wire fraud. I have two US citizen kids and my wife is permanent resident. Am I eligible for I 212 waiver or I have to wait ten years to apply for waiver. Thanks
Dear Mohamed, If you have not returned to the USA without permission since your 2020 removal, you may seek the I-212 waiver at any time. If you do have a subsequent unlawful entry to the USA, then you will have a 20-year bar before you’re able to apply because of the deportation based on an aggravated felony conviction. Please note that you will also need an I-601 waiver for the criminal activity before your residency can be approved. Best of luck on your case!
Hi, I was deported back in 2004 for life (I think). I was a U.S. permanent resident and lived in the U.S. for nearly 30 years. I arrived in the U.S. with my parents in 1976. Currently I have been living in Mexico for the past 18 years. My whole family is in the U.S. My question is, what can I do to go back legally? I was convicted for an aggravated felony (not drugs nor sexual charges) and deported in 2004. What are the steps to start a process in getting back to the U.S. legally? Can I get a pardon? Or a permit to visit at least? I work as a Spanish/English Interpreter over the phone helping people all over the U.S. Please help. Thank you.
Hi, Ruben, Individuals deported after a conviction of an aggravated felony are inadmissible for life, but if you have a family member who could petition for you, you may be able to apply for a waiver under INA 212(h). Those waivers require a showing of at least “extreme hardship” to a qualifying relative if the applicant is not re-admitted to the USA. If your criminal conviction involves a crime that could be considered “violent or dangerous,” then the hardship standard increases significantly to “extreme and exceptionally unusual hardship.” Depending on the facts of the criminal conviction, it may be possible to obtain a waiver and return to the United States.
