Answer 1

yes you can but read this first :


If an alien who has been ordered deported or removed, then he must wait outside the United States for five (5) or ten (10) years continuously. In the case of an alien who was ordered deported or removed for an "aggravated felony" as defined by section 101(a)(43) of the Act, then a continously period of twenty (20) yeas is required. An alien who has been ordered deported or removed as specified above, and who is applying for an immigrant or nonimmigrant visa, admission to the U.S., or adjustment of status, must demonstrate that he has remained outside of the U.S. for the timer period required for reentry after deportation or removal. The examining consular official or immigration officer must be satisfied that the alien has remained outside the U.S. for more than five (5), ten (10), or twenty (20) consecutive years, depending. Hence, any alien who cannot demonstrate that he has remained outside the U.S. for the requisite period, even if this actually occurred, must file an Application to Return After Deportation/Removal. An temporary stay in the United States under section 212(d)(3) of the Act does not interrupt the five or twenty consecutive year absence requirement.

Application Procedure

Aliens who have been ordered deported, excluded, or removed must wait outside the United States for varying periods of time ranging from one (1) year to twenty (20) years depending upon the immigration proceeding instituted to removed the alien from the country, and the charge of deportability/excludability/in... that was sustained to invoke the same. Hence, an alien has two options: (1) Wait outside the United States for the designated period and return afterwards in a lawful manner; (2) Apply for special permission from the Attorney General to Renter the United States before the removal period is completed.

If the second option is choosen, an alien must file an Application to Reenter after Deportation/Removal, Form I-212, with the U.S. INS District Director with jurisdiction over the place where the deportation or removal proceedings were held, or directly with a U.S. Consulate abroad. The filing fee for this application is currently, US$170. Any application should be accompanied with supporting documentation and exhibits

Answer 2

according to the news for every person deported three more come in. Those deported come back four times or more. We certainly hope that there will be no way criminals can return to the United States, legally or otherwise. Our crooked congressmen and senators passed laws regarding illegal immigration and after the 1986 amnesty failure to enforce the laws has resulted in a 400% increase in illegal alien population and 9/11/01. Had American Citizens actually been aware that our government was/is not enforcing the laws it passed, we believe there would have been a huge uprising right after 9/11/01.
If the people had been made as aware that illegal aliens were checking their bags at the airports as they were about the travel restrictions placed upon law abiding citizens, we believe heads would roll.

Answer 3

After the 5 years you can make a re-application for admission into the US. From what you wrote it doesn't seem like you have an aggravated felony conviction which carries a lifetime bar for coming back legally/illegally. What was your conviction for that has a lot to do with your opportunity to return legally.

There are certain waivers that you might benefit from if applicable my suggestion is to seek legal counsel. Here is a link to some pro-bono immigration attorneys that can help you. Good luck!

A criminal checklist does not basically circulate away because of the fact the government are slow in catching criminal. whilst this is possibly stunning to three that she wasn't deported upon her in charge plea 9 years in the past all of us locate out extra daily approximately how slow and backlogged the device is. she gets an lawyer and attempt to make a case for herself yet till she will teach that she replaced into by some ability coerced into her confession of fraud it is not likely she'll be waiting to get any style of normalization.

Answer 5

Have your mom contact an immigration lawyer in the States. The way I understand it, you have a better chance of getting in legally if someone's "pulling' for you instead of you 'pushing'.....good luck!

Answer 6

We have enough criminals in our country - 20 million to be exact - why would anyone in their right mind let you back in? You should have thought of your family before your criminal act?

Answer 7

no, you can not come back..... sorry
