yes you may think i'm stupid but i married a foreign guy over 4 years ago (now divorced) and i have recently found out (he admitted to me) that he had planned the marriage with me in order to get the visa etc so he could then bring his (new) wife and SON to this country!! (and he has succeeded) now can i do anything about this. does anybody know, surely i'm not the only one going through this pain!!

Have a chat with a solicitor - most will give you an initial interview free.

You can't get them deported no, but the Home office can. However they will need very good evidence that this was his intention from the very beginning.
Unless he is stupid enough to admit this on tape in front of reliable and objective witnesses (ie not you or your family, but preferably a police officer or Home office official) than there is little chance of him being deported.
Sorry that some one has used you like this. Unfortunately there are people out there treat others in cruel and heartless ways. Try not to let them keep hurting you, but when it comes to love you have little control over how you feel. Just treat them with the contempt they deserve and trust in the age old adage 'what goes around comes around'
Revenge is never a good motivation. Apart from the temporary satisfaction if they are deported, will this stop your pain? I doubt it, you may come to realise that you still have the pain but saddled with guilt as well.
Rise above it. You where treated appalingly. Don't be like him to get at him. You are better than that.

I don't know about UK, but in the US the easiest way to deport someone is to have them arrested for a felony. One felony will strip the visa and the immigrant will be deported. You might talk to a lawyer and see if the speed in which he obtained a new wife and son could prove he married you to obtain a visa. I'm very sorry this happened to you. I know you feel hurt and used and with good reason. Unless you want to plant some cocaine on him and call the cops, I just don't know. Best of luck to you though.

Set the anger aside, make sure you only make decisions free from the cloud of disappointment. At the time you married, was he an illegal alien or legal? If he was an illegal, did you facilitate his circumvention of the law? Be sure you are clean lest you too get fouled by the law. If he was a legal alien, did he proceed to bring his relatives legally thereafter? If he took advantage of the law, or its weaknesses, you need to tread carefully, coz you could lose again and get even more bitter. If he proceeded illegally, you could have a case, from the point of civil responsibility. But its important that you proceed without bitterness, but a clear mind.

i live in the UK too kelly and this is an all too familiar problem-when are british girls going to realise that illegal foreigners are only after one thing (and it is more valuable than the part of your anatomy that most english guys would be after). but more and more fall into the trap every year. right -lecture over. contact the immigration office or a solicitor and you might (and i only say might) be able to do something on the grounds that he deliberately deceived you in order to obtain official documents to enter this country legally. this amounts to deception-which is a criminal offence in this country. if he is convicted of this offence then his visa will be withdrawn (on account of the fact it wasn't obtained legally) but i warn you-this is a very long shot most solicitors serving for him will argue that this could be an act of sour grapes on your part. so prepare for dissappointment. what i would do is forget the whole sorry episode and get on with your own life-and the next time-find yourself a nice englishman!!.

I agree with Tony C
But there is a way of doing it for free, a friend of a friend was in exactly the same position as you, and ended up getting her ex husband deported.
You will have to be prepared to give evidence as it will turn into a criminal hearing.
Your first point of contact should be your local police station, they will take the initial report and then pass on all of the relevant details to the Home Office immigration department.
All it takes is to get the ball rolling and then it should take about 8 weeks to get a result (depending that your ex doesn't claim asylum).
Good luck

Get on with your own life, I would say. Don't waste your good time and energy on this loser but put that time and energy into succeeding at something other than this. Suppose you do go down this route and he isn't deported? You will have a double whammy then as you'll have wasted more of your life than you have already on this freeloader and he may know you shopped him and might come after you.

Unless you can prove in some way that he did not marry you for love, but for visas, then i don't think the law will help. Try and find anything that may work as evidence of this... then get a lawyer... and take that f**ker down!!

In the U.S. you could say something to the immigration office and after they investigate they would decided if they would deport or not. I suggest that you talk to an immigration office about your situation.

if the son was born here he is a LEGAL american citizen.
talk to an immigration officer, and they will be tried & possible deported.
you better do it fast, the longer he is here, the more likely he can stay.
