    Default Aggravated Felony Deportation of a Permanent Resident of More Than 20 Years

    Good evening everyone, and thank you for allowing me to be here. I'll get right to the point as to why I am here, and I will try to give the Reader's Digest version with as much detail as possible in order to gain some insight into my current situation. I am currently engaged to a man who was deported in 2009 for an aggravated felony to Mexico. We have one minor son, aged 2. I took on the relationship, thinking at the time I could handle this, and if need be, I'd move to Mexico, and we'd just reside there. I did try that, and as I type this thread, I am back in my home state seeking a way to help him come back to the U.S.


    Now, at the time of his conviction, he was a green card holder for more than 20 years. His mother and father both are U.S. citizens, however, they did not become naturalized until he was over the age of 18. He has two siblings who are also U.S. citizens. He, being the oldest was brought over from Mexico at the age of 2 weeks old. He obtained his education, and diploma in the U.S. and prior to his conviction, had no prior criminal history. His crime was not a violent one, it was for robbery of an armored truck, a company he was working for at the time. He did take over $10,000, making the crime an aggravated felony, was sentenced to 18 months in prison, and was released after 10 months served. He has a total of three minor children in the U.S. who are citizens, one belonging to us. While I am at it, I might add that his ex-wife is also a U.S. citizen, who filed for divorce while he was imprisoned. I met him after his deportation.


    During his trial, he took a plea bargain, and was not notified by his counsel that deportation would be inevitable, or even a possibility for that matter. After which, he served his 10 months, and was ultimately deported shortly thereafter. Currently, he's in Mexico, and his English is elementary, preventing him from finding any employment. As soon as he goes for an interview, the employer recognizes that he is not from here, just by the way he speaks.

    He has not seen our son in a year, and its been over 4 years since he's seen his other two children, which were taken from him legally by his ex wife while he was in prison as well. His parents have since moved to Mexico to take care of him, since he cannot find employment and was basically living well below poverty in Mexico, which says a lot.

    I have a couple of reasons that I cannot reside in Mexico. One being that my oldest son belongs to another man, and he will not agree to us moving there to stay together. He'd only agree, if I left my son with him in Ohio, and that just cannot happen for obvious reasons.

    So what we're left with is, we're both stationary in our locations for multiple reasons. My question is, is there anything at all that we can do? Non-immigrant visa? Waiver of Inadmissibility? Please..any information you can provide me with will be appreciated.

    They are not going to grant a hardship waiver to a felon. It seems like you must make a choice. Your husband or your child.

    There is absolutely no way this felon will be allowed to reenter the country any time soon.

    You may need to make a decision here.
