Yes! Contact an immigration attorney or one of the agencies listed with your Notice to Appear. If you have been here longer than one year, you will have a problem claiming asylum though.

Ok, from what you say you were actually 'refused leave to enter' and then removed from the UK. In UK law the term deportation has a different and more serious meaning. Sounds like splitting hairs I know but it is quite an important distinction. \n\nI've seen your other question - re what you should say to immigration - and, given the experience you describe here, I can understand why you ask it. However you do need to be absolutely open and honest if you try to return. Because you have been refused entry before your case will be scrutinised with particular care and any omissions or half truths are very likely to come to light, with the result that a second refusal would follow.\n\nUnfortunately it won't be easy to persuade immigration of your case. What they are concerned with is your intentions : details regarding employment, finance etc are simply evidence which helps them to assess whether your stated intentions are genuine and realistic. They are not going to be persuaded simply by the fact that you now have a job - if you came and things worked out with your relationship then presumably you would return to that job either temporarily only or not at all. What you need to do is demonstrate either that your circumstances have changed or that you have re-appraised your plans and that they no longer raise any immigration concerns.\n\nEasy to say, harder to do. You do need to show that there's enough money available to you during your stay, either from your own resources or through your sponsor. If you'd be staying at a private address while here then obviously you wouldn't need accommodation costs so less money required. These things can only ever be a rule of thumb because there are no set rules - personally I'd suggest that £1,000 for a stay of around a month with no accommodation expenses looks comfortable. It could obviously be done cheaper but bear in mind you'd need to satisfy immigration that you could also cover the cost of any emergencies that might happen whilst here. \n\nIf you have that kind of money available, good. However Immigration will be interested to know where the money came from. As you're going through a divorce it may well be that your financial position is temporarily a little more insecure than usually it would be. In the way of divorces things can also improve quite rapidly once things begin to move. They may well understand that, in these circumstances, a person's financial standing can improve rapidly - provided that the money is there to back up your statements.\n\nI'd strongly suggest that you apply for a visa to your nearest UK Embassy or Consulate in the US before trying to travel. As you know you can travel without but there's a risk that you'd lose the cost of your ticket if you were refused entry at the airport again. It also gives you the chance to put your case better - never easy to do that when exhausted after a long, transatlantic flight.\n\nI'm sorry this is mostly quite a negative response. Unfortunately it is a really difficult situation with no cast-iron guarantees and I didn't want to gloss over that. I really hope this all works out for you.

call the police and explain ur situation ( illeagal immagration is a big thing now days so ) they will be more than happy to help you find out if his visa is expired, then contact a lawyer incase he' tries anything.

If you leave the United States for more than 6 months, but less than 1 year, you have broken or disrupted your "continuous residence" unless you can prove otherwise.\nRead the "Document Checklist" in the Guide to Naturalization  to find out what information you must give to USCIS prove you did not break your "continuous residence."

It seems not as stated below, but you may want to check with a lawyer\n\nWithholding of removal is in some ways similar to asylum, but it has a higher standard. To qualify for withholding of removal under 8 U.S.C. section 1231(b)(3), the non-citizen must demonstrate that it is more likely than not that he/she would be subject to persecution based on race, religious beliefs, nationality, membership in a particular social group or political opinion. Unlike with asylum, an immigrant who is granted relief under withholding of removal is only given a right not to be removed to a specific country. Unlike asylees, non-citizens who are granted withholding of removal do not have the right to apply for a green card. They actually have a final order of removal against them, so if they travel outside the U.S., they will not be allowed to return.

As everyone else has said if you leave on your own accord its not deportation? However unless you can give a valid reason for why you overstayed it is likely to effect you when you reaply to come back its still possible you could be granted a visitors visa again but it also depends on how long you overstayed for? if you needed to cliam public funds when you were in the UK. It's also possible your passport my even get a big "W" stamped on it which means warning. This will hi-light to a ECO (entry clearance officer) in any country you have broken your immigration commitments in the UK. This could also affect you geting Visas in other countries too. This is normally only given to repeat offenders so if this is the first time you have overstayed take the slap on the wrist, and make sure you dont make the same mistake twice otherwise the penalty could be a lot worse.\n\ngood luck \n\nmgi1975

I married my husband (now ex) in Jan 98.  He was just visiting the US when we got married and so we had to go through all the immigration stuff to have him stay here.  Did you go to the interview alone?  If you missed the interview as well, the Immigration service will consider that an abandonment of your application.  If your application is no longer in process then your visa status may have expired - you may now be in the country illegally.  I would call an immigration attorney ASAP.

They work, sometimes.  They require more than a good lawyer as you have to PROVE hardship because of the separation.  I emphasize 'prove' because just arguing financial or mental stress will not help at all.  A sympathetic agent is the best you can hope for.\nAlso, if your husband was illegal for less than 12 months he is only excluded for 3 years; in that case it might be easier to just wait it out.  I highly recommend this option as ridiculous as it sounds but when you add up the length of time it takes to get paperwork ready-filed-confirmed-approved/denied, the frustration and the expense... it might be worth to just wait. \nWhen you submit the I-212, make sure you include LOTS of supporting documentation, including a psychological evaluation if possible.

Don't listen to these people.  A ten year visa absolutely does NOT allow a person to stay in the US for ten years.  She can come and stay ONLY for the amount of time they give her on the I-94 white card she gets at the airport.  Then she has to leave or apply for an extension.  She can extend for up to one year. If she spends too much time in the US, then her visa is revoked even if there is time left on the visa.  Then she will either be in the US illegally subject to deportation or in Romania and she can't come back.

I will have my daughter contact you. She works with DD and knows quite a bit about the system. God bless the system and the inmates that run that asylum. When going up against a bureaucracy you will need all the help you can get. Good luck.

Yes, you can work. When this happened to us we got an appointment and they put a stamp in our passport that says "processed for I-551. Temporary evidence of lawful admission for permanent residence. Employment Authorized". Also you are supposed to receive a letter that stated that your case is being reviewed. We even used this stamp and letter to travel outside of the US. Just make sure you get an appointment with your local office. We had to go twice to sort this thing out! Good luck!

You might can get more info by the Embassy or contact the immigration office. They should know that.\nOn the other side, I think you allways can apply for it, only if they will give you the permission, that will be probably different. But this way you can work on it.

You should find a way to move to a country where you can live your life.\nI do not know whether you can apply for political asylum in the U.S., though you can apply for permanent residency by finding employment here in the U.S.\nI hope you leave your country, and find happiness somewhere.\nI don't know what education you have, or what skills you have, but you should absolutely be able to find work no matter what your background.\nGo for it. The world is large.\nFind the part of it where you belong.
