My uncle was deported to Colombia 3 years ago. He was detained by INS and deported basically because he came to USA and over-stayed his visitor´s visa. He didn´t have any criminal charges. He is facing a 10 year bar.
Now, me and family found a big american company who is willing to sponsor him. He is a graphic designer and this advertising company can legally sponsor him. Will he be allowed to re-enter again or there is nothing to do is his case?

After 5 years he can apply to have the stay lifted, but there is no guarantee he will get it.
This is what I have heard. Go to uscis.gov for details.
(and don't listen to those people saying to come illegally. It is a felony if he comes illegally after being deported, and that is a PERMANENT ban. )

The landing of a foreigner who has been deported shall be refused for 5 years from the date of deportation (period of refusal of landing). However, the re-entry after such period will not always be permitted.
And just because you are part of a huge company and he might be a good worker that doesn't mean he can come back whenever he wants to. People are removed from this country for a reason.

If his only "crime" was that he overstayed his Visa, if that' actually why he was deported, since a 10 year ban because one overstayed his Visa sounds almost impossible, then I don't see a problem with him coming back. The company that wants to hire him is going to have to "go to bat" for him, but I don't see a problem.
Like I said. I find it almost impossible to believe that someone could have a 10 year ban just for overstaying their Visa. Perhaps your uncle isn't telling the whole story.

I hope not until his 10 year bar is up. We shouldn't be rewarding people who break the law. Ignorance of the law is no excuse for citizens and it should be no excuse for non-citizens, either. Besides that, we have plenty of American Graphic Designers who would love to have that job. We need to sponsor American Citizens and employ American Citizens first!

You can do it illegally.
If he has a 10-year bar, then he has to wait 10 years. I guess all you can do is talk to a lawyer to see what else can be done. Knowing how bendable law is, I would say he's got a chance if he pays enough money to the right lawyer(s).
All's well. It's not like life is any better in the U.S.

Ask the INS but a 10 year ban is usually just that - a 10-year ban.
There may, however, be appeals processes you can go through.

They physically can but it is illegal and if caught they will be in even more trouble.
Can't they get the message, they are not suppose to be here! Follow the law!

"He is facing a 10 year bar"
Appeal to INS or wait it out.

He may be eligible for a waiver - check with a reputable immigration attorney.
