I know someone who has received an order of deportation for overstaying. His girlfriend is a citizen who is willing to marry him in order to help him with his problem. Would that help him?

He would still get deported.

There is a process that must be followed first. You need to fill out an application & get it approved. You will also have to go thru an extensive interview designed with questions that will reveal whether or not you and the other person are really married out of love or if its a situation where one person is only trying to get citizenship out of it. They have highly trained people in that dept so don't try to fool them or you will be caught in a lie & there are fines for that. Not trying to scare you, just inform you so you know ahead of time. There are legal ways to get into the country. Use those instead of illegal ways and be a good citizen :) Good luck

OK, now I'm really nervous.
In answering this question, spook said 'your congressman might keep you from getting deported if you voted, so I hope you did.'
Except that it is against the law for someone not a citizen to vote, so I hope you do NOT have another prosecutable offense to put on top of the deportation.

I live within ten minutes of the border. There are many cases where a spouse of a citizen is deported. So, claims that marriage instantly stops it sure doesn't sound right to me.
I also believe as one answer says, that in any case the marriage will be viewed as fraudulent.
We had one married citizen here in McAllen who moved to Monterrey to be with her deported husband.
So, thus I don't believe marriage will save him.
However, the correct answer is: SEE AN IMMIGRATION ATTORNEY.

Getting married and having toddlers does no longer negate the actual undeniable reality that the guy broke US guidelines and is a criminal. in the experience that they did not opt to be dealt with like a criminal, they ought to have left the U. S. at the same time as their visa expired, like ninety 9% of visa holders. The day they desirous to overstay by making use of more advantageous than 6 months, they in reality have themselves in charge for being banned from reentry for 3-10 years. it truly is not any one's fault yet their personal What do you advise it truly is not any longer honest? This human being made the alternative to interrupt the regulation and desires to pay the consequences.

I know someone who is being deported even though he has an American wife and kids. It's not helping him any.

If he's already under a deportation order, the answer is no ...

He would have to apply for adjustment of status and one of the first questions is "are you in the country now?" the next is "have you been deported?"
If he has been ordered to leave and hasn't he will most likely not get the adjustment in status. Its best to get an Immigration lawyer to provide him with the details.

Nope but it will help you get back. If you have a great job and and have a clean record you may stop it via the help of your Congressman (and he may check your voting record) so I hoped you voted. Since this is a election year you should get some help.

No, I'm sorry, he will have to get another green card and go through the steps for becoming a U.S. citizen.
Good Luck to your friend!!!!!
