Can a person deport an immigrant because it knows the person is illegal if so what is the process??

Of course not. How could you possibly know?\n\nI know the following story: in 1962 an Algerian student in the USA was accused of "threatening behavior" against another motorist and was arrested. \n\nAs it happened, Algeria had become independent a few days earlier and his father had been named Algerian ambassador to the USA.\n\nIt took an hour or so to prove that fact, and he was released by reason of diplomatic immunity.\n\nThere are thousands of hypotheses that could make an "illegal" alien non-deportable. The most common is the Geneva Refugee Convention (1950). Only a judge can determine if an alien is deportable. You cannot.\n\nAnd read this: \n"A Border Watcher Finds Himself Under Scrutiny\n"A man who boasted of capturing 12,000 illegal immigrants faces lawsuits accusing him of harassing and unlawfully imprisoning people."\nhttp://www.nytimes.com/2006/11/24/us/24border.html

Just like any other immigrant, they'd need to go through legal channels.  Otherwise, they'd just be another illegal immigrant.

WOW you stepped in it this time. She is illegal, get her deported and take out an order that stops her from taking your child (an American citizen) you can do that I've seen it done in Virginia. I forget what it is called but if your lawyer doesn't know what to file ask him to ask another lawyer maybe one that has been around a while.

I would say an undocumented chinese person would be better.\n\nIt is far easier to accuse a mexican of being here illegally, and just deport them across the border.  But to deport a chinese person would mean you would need to send them all the way across the pacific ocean.

I would need more info. like what was he in custody for. If he was here illegally he was probably deported. If he has ties to any terrorist activity he is probably being held for interrogation somewhere. If it is for some other reason the FBI is not obligated to release the information to the public. I think your hands are tied until the person gets in touch with you.

It depends on if he is going to risk being found out. If the police are involved, you would get charged with assault, but if the illegal doesn't want to file charges, it might still be up to the officer to press charges against you. \n\nWhether of not the police do anything about the illegal depends entirely on whether he is willing to cooperate with the police, or if he is angry about the assault. \n\nIf you put him in the hospital, there is no doubt that the police will press charges against you, and there is no doubt that the illegal will cooperate with the police. \n\nAs for deporting him, depends also on what part of the country you live in. I have noticed that illegals have a harder and harder time avoiding deportation the further north you go. \n\nIf you live in Texas or Arizona, he won't get deported. If you live in New York City or Montpelier Vermont, you can bet on it.

If you are an immigrant and have not become a naturalized citizen and commit a crime, you can be deported. This has been in the immigration laws since the 1880s. You're father sounds like a very ignorant bastard and so do you.

Oh for heaven's sake, you can't determine if someone is here illegally by looking at them.  Just let them enjoy their day and mind your own business.

Not ALL people from another country are illegal . Just the people who come here without permission to do so and stay here and don't pay taxes.  Yeah, that's pretty illegal.  On the other hand, if someone comes here with a green card or something legal like that; it's all good.

how about a traitor?  i was an immigrant but came here legally. i became a us citizen after 5 years of continuous stay in the us. i applied for citizenship and was granted. there are legal ways and process to migrate. illegal is illegal, plain and simple. it is a criminal act. it must be punishable by law. these illegal immigrants know this as a fact and yet they justify this act. i am so against illegal immigration and some call me a traitor.

If one isn't willing to be truthfull with the organization that evaluates one's eligibility for citizenship then it seems reasonable to me that the applicant be denied.\n   Citing other legal offenses that are pardonable as a reason to allow people to try gain fraudulent immigration is fallacious. Firstly there is no guarantee that a waiver will be provided for ANY criminal activity, and secondly the immigration process requires as a basis that good faith and truthful information be provided in order to make fair descisions. One who purposely tries to undermine this shouldn't be crying foul when caught playing that game.

No you are not deportable. If you are a resident you still have a process with the immigration office, but you have to let them know what the reason for the divorce was, if it was abusive partner or just differences...

There are restrictions early in the process, usually while the immigrant is waiting for their permanent resident status.  I think once they hold a greencard they can come and go as they please.  Even during the early "probation" period, they can request permission to travel abroad for family emergencies and such.  \n\nThe local INS office can usually tell the immigrant their restrictions and give them any papers they need to fill out to get permission to leave if they're in a probation period.

Illegal immigration is not a crime.\n\nHe would serve the same sentence as a citizen. Upon completion, he would be deported.\n\nResponse to comment following this one:\n\nIllegal immigration is a minor offense and is not considered a "crime." It is equivalent to a traffic ticket.

I believe that having a felony is grounds for deportation if someone is not a citizen of the United States.  Driving under the influence is a felony.  Non-citizens who commit felonies are usually required to serve their sentence here in the U.S. before being deported so it is not unusual for someone to be picked up by INS after they have finished their sentence (in this case, community service).

They're arrested, detained and then given a hearing to establish if they have a legitmate cause for asylum. If they don't prove their case, they're deported.

It all depends on the status of the person right now, and why they want to deport him.  \nEven if he is married, if he's not applied for the marriage visa, then that is same as still being illegal, so in that case, unfortunately he can be deported.  Also if he has applied for the visa and has been rejected, and has not successfully appealed, then the same thing can be said.  \nYet even though he once was an illegal immigrant, if he is legally married to an English girl now for 6 years, then he should well qualify for the marriage visa. So if he's not applied for it before, then he must apply now as soon as possible.  And he must prove them that he has been legally married to this person for 6 years now, and the marriage is still in continue, and him and his wife live together.  \nHome Office should not deport him because he was an illegal immigrant once, as long as he has the right status now.  So, whatever the reason for them to trying to deport him, he definitely needs to speak to a immigration lawyer to sort it out.  There are many agencies that can settle down cases on no visa no fee bases, so try asking help from those.  Check TNT magazine and its website for their adverts.  Do not speak to Home Office about it, as they are least likely to be helpful.\nAnd those are some links that might be useful.\nGood luck.
