    Default I-129 Approved for a H2b After Deportation

    Hi, my employer just got the I-129 approved for a H2B Visa, I was in the US between 1999 and 2003, I was deported in oct 2003. Thats 11 years ago. I know thats no way to predict it, but do I have a chance of getting the visa, is there anything else I need to check before apply?

    Thanks

    Without knowing the details we can't tell you. Did they mark you down as having been previously deported on the I-129?
    Where you subject to a lifetime ban?

    I had a 10 years ban but my I129 has no mention of anything like my deportation, just my name and country of origin (Brazil).

    Then you may be in trouble. Why was the beneficiary information not truthfully submitted?

    The application was made for more than 1 worker and the only question about removal procedings is part 4 question 6 Is any of the beneficiarys in removal procedins? and I am not in removal, I was deported. Help me understand it.

    I'm not sure that flyingron is familiar with the form.

    Your being (presumably) outside of your period of ineligibility (I'll assume it to be ten years from a four year overstay with a consecutive period of ineligibility from your removal order) would mean that you're not automatically disqualified from reentry. However, given that history I would suggest that you work with an immigration lawyer in order to form a strategy to maximize the likelihood of your obtaining the H-2B visa and minimize the chance that (even with the visa in hand) an immigration officer might decide to deny you entry at the port of entry.
