You can always ask for a pardon. Your odds might not look at that great, but all you have to do to ask a pardon is to write a letter.

Will your boyfriend be deported if you were to marry him if he entered the U.S. legally over 15 years ago and has committed one felony that he is now serving time for?
A foreign national who is convicted of a felony will be deported after they serve their imposed sentence and in most cases permanently barred for applying for reentry into the US. Marriage to a US citizen, if allowed will not alter the penalty, the person will still be deported and barred from the US.
Is a convicted immigrant eligible to remain in the US?
No. Illegal immigrants are subject to deportation with or without a criminal conviction. Permanent resident status and naturalized citizenship can be revoked if the circumstances warrant and the convicted person can be deported to his or her country of origin and permanently banned for applying for reentry into the US.
Can a deported Canadian citizen obtain a visa to return to the US?
Not if it was a permanent deportation. Other status violations have different time requirements for applying for reentry. Regulations and requirements can be found on the USCIS website.
What can a US citizen do to keep her illegal immigrant spouse from being deported back to Mexico?
The citizen spouse has no recourse to the action as US immigration laws no longer allow a citizen spouse to apply for residency for an illegal immigrant spouse. The Mexican national will have to leave the US and file under the required USCIS regulations for reentry.
Can someone deported for life get a visa?
Not likely. "Deported for life" means exactly that, the foreign national will not be allowed to apply for reentry into the US under any status. The person had the right to file an appeal before he or she was deported, apparently they failed to do so or the appeal was not successful.
If a person is deported will they be able return to the US?
Any time a foreign national has been deported and attempts to return to the United States he/she is guilty of "agravated re-entry" and upon conviction will be sent to Federal prison for a period of not less than 1 and not more than 10 years. * If the question refers to a person who has not been permanently deported, then the answer is yes; the person can, after the required time period has elapsed, apply for legal reentry into the US. A foreign national who was unlawfully present within the US for 12 months or less and is deported is barred from applying for reentry for 3 years. A foreign national who was unlawfully present within the US for more than 12 months and is deported is barred from applying for reentry for 10 years.
What happens to a person on a 90 day visa in the United States if he is arrested for the crime of identity theft?
The person is held in custody until arraignment and then may be released on bond but that is "iffy' since he or she would be considered a flight risk. The US Justice Department will usually have jurisdiction and they will decide if the person should stand trial for his or her alledged crime or if he or she will be deported to his or her country of origin and barred from reentry into the US for a specified time. If the person stands trial and is convicted he or she will serve the imposed sentence for the crime and then be deported "with prejudice", which permanently bars legal reentry into the US
What papers need to be filed for reentry back into the US after being deported?
You would need either an I- 212 waiver or I- 601 waiver. For serious crimes there is no waiver.
How long after marrying a citizen and becoming a citizen can that person remarry an illegal alien?
The issue of divorce may in fact be irrelevant. The USCIS/ICE is no longer recognizing all marriages between unlawfully present foreign nationals and US citizens as valid. When the foreign national applies for citizenship immigration officials will do an in depth investigation as to the legality of the marriage. If it is found that the union took place for the sole purpose of the foreign national to gain permanent residency or citizenship, both parties can be charged with a federal felony. The penalty to all involved parties for being convicted of entering into a fraudulent marriage is a maximum of 5 years in a federal facility and a $250,000 fine. The convicted illegal immigrant will be deported to his or her country of origin and permanently barred from reentry into the US. The US citizen will have a permanent criminal record of having commited a felony offense. That aside, naturalized citizenship can be revoked (denaturalized) at any time for many reasons including the divorce of a citizen spouse, therefore a time limit does not really matter.
What can be done to assist an illegal immigrant married for 6-months to a US citizen who was deported returned illegally and is now awaiting trial?
Unfortunately there is nothing that will change the status of the foreign national as he has broken immigration laws twice and now will be deported and unable to apply for reentry for at least ten years. It is also possible because he "deliberately violated with malice" US immigration laws he will be receive a sentence in a federal facility before he is deported; although time spent in detention awaiting trial usually negates further incarceration. Most people who are deported are guilty of a felony. Once a foreign national with a felony record returns to the U.S., he/she is immediatly guilty of "agrivated reentry" which is also a felony. The illegal alien can be locked up for not less than 1 and not more than 10 years, at which time he/she will be deported. U.S. citizens should learn to be more careful regarding who they marry. This is a nation of laws, and ignoring our laws enourages others to ignore our laws.

Would an International student who has been 'out of status' since the Summer of 2005 have a chance of obtaining legal status?
No. If the student had taken steps before his or her studen visa expired, then it may have been possible. After such a lengthy time, the person would be required to voluntarily leave the US and return to their country of origin or be deported. Any person who is unlawfully present within the US for less than 12 months will be deported and barred from applying for reentry for 3 years. Any person who is unlawfully present within the US for more than 12 months will be deported and barred from applying for reentry for 10 years.
