I was living in the US for 17 yrs when i got deported, I am not sure if i can re-enter, I have been out of the country now for almost 5years. I have two children that are US citizens and are still living in the US. I served 3 and 1/2 yrs in Prison for grand theft dealing in stolen property and scheme to defraud, i know this sounds bad, but i was married to the kids father for 9years nad he became very abusive and like all foolish women i did not report it to the police when i almost miscarried with my second child, I left him a year after, I had no support from him so i ended up committing those crimes.
Now my children are there and i am here, its difficult for me to see them, how can i go about re-entering the US.
