Serious illegal immigration question?

Question

I am married to an LEGAL immigrant. He has been in the US about 11 years. The problem is that a year ago his mother called him to let him know that his brother, sister, and her husband were coming to America, illegally of course and that they had no where to go. His sister left 7 kids behind and she is 26 y.o. My husband let them stay with us! We fought non stop about this but he said he would not let his family live on the street. So they are here, freeloading, messing up my house, disrespecting me on a daily basis. I got fed up and told them to get out. His sister called me an "American *****" and then she pushed me. I pushed her back and she fell down, hit the table and got a little scratch. Went to the police station(in our neighborhood) I got arrested and kicked out of my own house for a week because they said I was the agressor! Enough is enogh! How do I get them out of my house without violence? At this point I might just file for divorce and let them have this darn house. HELP

See thats the thing!! I ABSOLUTELY told the cops that they are illegal and they said they could not do anything because they were living in my house for a year and that they had RESIDENCY there!! They said they could not be put out. My husband lied and said that they pay rent. The cops did not listen to me!

Answer 1

Did you tell the police they were illegal immigrants? If not, then you should have.

Just report them. They don't belong in the country illegally and if they can't handle that it isn't your problem.

Additional: Immigration will listen to you. Don't tell your husband beforehand so he won't be able to prepare. If they don't have rental receipts, then they can't prove that they paid rent. Also, if your husband can't show himself as receiving the exact extra income that they were supposedly have paid in rent, then that shows them as probably lying about paying rent. Also, if they were to have paid rent, then he would have had to claim it on his tax return, which I'm certain he didn't.

As I said, don't warn him beforehand. The bad thing about lying as he and they have done is that there are a lot of ways they can be tripped up in their lies. But if they have warning, then they might prepare something.

Also, people can get into this country legally, so there is no good reason for them to have entered illegally and placed any kind of a strain on you. The entire situation is their fault and they should be made to take responsibility for it and the consequences that come with it.

Answer 2

Call immigration. I know you will be getting your husband into trouble too, but there is NO reason you should have to feel like the outcast in your own home! That wouldn't fly, even if they were all American born!

The police won't do anything. You must call INS. If they seem to be taking their time...file an eviction notice with your local municipal court and have them served with a 30 day notice. It may actually take 30 days, but you can LEGALLY evict these 'residents'! Good luck! I don't know how you've kept from going postal~

lmao i like Lou Dobbs.. i change right into a staunch democrat till i realized that both events have failed.. The neo conservatives of the Republican social gathering help a failed warfare on faux pretenses. The democrats were elected into congress in 2006, with no longer something to exhibit for it. the present democratic applicants basically dance around the problem of Iraq and proceed to play the blame sport. Neither Hillary Clinton or Barack Obama has a desirable go out approach defined for Iraq. no longer too aspect out they both help finished amnesty for illegals and both voted for the Patriot Act, this is an instant infringement on our privateness.... I propose you look into Ron Paul... His beliefs are very different from the neo-conservatives, esp because he's anti warfare, also he plans to maintain our borders and supplies you no amnesty for illegals.. wish that permits :)

Answer 4

you should get a lawyer(someone who's informed about the illegal immigrant issue) for your rights / entitlements as a co-owner of the house. speak to your husband about where you and he stand in this whole mess. I don't want to tell you what to do with your marriage, just remember that it takes the two of you to get things straightened out. I am sorry that you had to go through all this. But you need to be somehow emotionally detached to sort all this out.

As far as the illegal status of your sister-in-law, I personally think that you should let someone else do the dirty work, because if your husband finds out, it would only make the matter more complicated and less in your favor.

Answer 5

Have you considered calling immigration? Maybe there is a way to do this anonymously, so that your husbands family will not know about it. If you do this though, you might want to make sure that you don't get "in trouble" for having them at your house. As for your husband, I would sit him down and talk to him about the "incident" with his sister and let him know how you feel. Good luck!

Answer 6

First try to talk to your husband and let him know that the hospitality is over and was only for short term and if he doesn't see it like that, take matters into your own hands. I would hurt their wallet by calling Immigration services and have them deported it cost 3000 dollars to come back to the US Illegally I believe. Don't let them have anything, that's exactly what they probably want you to do including your husband turning on you,but he is an *** for allowing this to happen so kick his *** to the curve for not defending his immediate family (which is you) against his other family. Besides you never asked for all this to happen so it is not your fault. I'm an immigrant as well but even in my country of birth I would not allow this to happen.

Answer 7

Call immigration, they'll get them out quickly.. it's not fair for you to be in this situation, because with you being the full fledged citizen you'll be charged with harboring illegal immigrants if you don't do something. This happened to a friend of mine. She met a man from Mexico on a work permit, fell in love, had his baby and then got married for him to be a citizen. Within a few years he invited his 2 brothers and sister to live with them in a 2 bedroom apartment and she is having a hard time dealing with it because they disrespect her and her baby and only 1 of his siblings is here legally. Good luck.

Answer 8

Turn them in. Simple. Granted that won't win you any points in your relationship with your husband, but as you say, enough is enough. They are illegal. Its not for them to like or dislike the law and it certainly doesn't matter whether they believe in it or not. The bottom line is that they are illegal. Yes it is harsh to do that to someone, especially a relative of sorts, but the only way that people will respect the laws of this country is by following them. Especially the ones we don't agree with. There is a way to get laws changed yes, but breaking the law is not the correct path to doing that.

Answer 9

I am sorry that you have gotten yourself into the casualty list in the front lines of the battle of the Countries!

Fight back with the right-full indignation you are entitled to have!

Divorce his Butt! Sue for possession of the Estate! Find all of the Employers the relatives used and report them-For the sake of the community as well as revenge! Report the Illegals to the INS and ICE. Report your traitorous spouse before you are considered an accomplice in the felonious activity he exposed you to!

Get on with your life with a recommended new Identity-Illegals can murder with impunity!

Good luck!

Answer 10

I'm a legal immigrant. But I kinda understand why your husband wants his family to be with him. But the problem is that they are in the states illegally and they don't get along with you...

If I were you, I would discuss this issue once again with your husband. And if he says he needs to choose his family over you, you probably need to think about getting a divorce and call ICE.
