As I understand it .. It depends on the person being deported.. I read today 06/27/2012 that DHS is saying it can Currently take Up-To 8 years to deport somebody..

Ease and expediency of deporting somebody, Depends on the circumstances holding a person here, and his or her ability to fight and appeal his or her deportation order through the courts.

Also, DHS will prioritize depending on seriousness of infractions - if there have been any other criminal activity other than unauthorized presence which would make he or she a higher priority for removal.

The Government has limited funds to do this job after all, so they are not going to fast track and deport "a family member" for "just" breathing American air.. Over.. Say.. A serial killer who overstayed his Visa.. Prioritization of law enforcement and processing any criminal is done in exactly the same fashion as your local police will operate..

For example.. "Usually" Your local Police Officer won't throw YOU into jail for jaywalking - even though it is illegal, and they can. They have to prioritize the serious cases over the not-so-serious cases with the limited funds they have, and they do this to keep us all safer by getting rid of the REALLY Bad guys first.

So it depends.. If those deported are not criminals (outside of being illegally present - which really isn't considered a "criminal action" - More a civil code violation) And those aliens choose to fight through the courts, it can take long time for final removal..

If those caught residing illegally sign off on their removal at time of capture - it can take a very short period of time. If those people "caught" have done something Truly criminal (let's leave the pedantic definitions of misnomers and hysteria aside).. Then they also will be fast tracked for deportation and will sometimes be deported by the courts in absentia and right after they serve their time.

Like I say.. Depends.. But Currently - Depending on the person.. From a very short period of time, Up-to 8 years.

It depends. You cant be deported until you do your time in prison but if you are released from prison and you are illegal Im pretty sure that you already have an ICE Hold that means that ICE will pick you up from prison after you served your time when that happends you will be deported after 1 week if you were deported before because you dont need to see an Immigration judge but if this is your first time it probably take up to 3 weeks because you need to see the immigration judge. If you are not from Mexico it will probably take a little bit longer to deport you home.

I live in Chicago and want to marry an illegal immigrant from Italy who has live in Chicago for 6 years now. How do I marry an illegal immigrant living in the state he is illegal in?

You can't, unless u want him to be kicked out of the country. he can return to the country, and you get married there. Then you file a whole bunch of forms for him to get here, as if he didn't do the illegal immigration in the first place. It will take a long time.


Can a Illegal Immigrant go to court and not get deported?

I am noticing it is not that easy to get someone deported because of expenses. Unless they have done some crime here in America, then it seems as though no one cares. * If the unlawfully present immigrant appears in a court of law regardless of the reason for him being there, authorities are required to take him into custody and remand him to immigration officials. Whether or not he will be deported depends upon if he qualifies as a refugee or asylee.
