Going back to when Bush was president.
So in 2003 when Bush was president. My family and I crossed the border in a greyhound bus in Texas. We were detained and release in promise to go to court. Our destination was Miami, Fl. Anyways, I was 9 at the time. A judge order me deportation proceedings and 10 year ban. Did the judge had the right to do that?! Even though I was just a kid? They did get all of our information. Except for my fingerprints. The adults got their prints and pictures taken.
Anyone in the same situation that has close their deportation case? What chances do I have to win that case if I reopen it? I know you guys ain't lawyers, but might know someone similar. BTW Anyone remember this? Secure Fence Act of 2006 “This bill will help protect the American people. This bill will make our borders more secure. It is an important step toward immigration reform." We're past those steps. |

So because you were underage it means you’re protected from deportation...?

Re: Going back to when Bush was president.
I remember reading somewhere about children who crossed the border and that it doesn't exempt them from deportation. If you were caught, then they will have your info. If you cross twice then you might not be able to do an AOS because that would accrue a permanent ban.

No, didn't mean it like that. I mean since it was the "parents" fault for their actions. I guess it wasn't fair for me to get the 10 year ban. Since we were receiving death threats in Honduras. We had to leave the country. Also it Made things harder for us to adjust back then. I was the only one with a court order at the time. Makes sense why my mom didn't even try to take me. |

A 10 year ban?
I have an almost exact situation. They took my photo and fingerprints though but I didn’t receive a 10 year ban. |

But couldn't you apply for TPS since you ran away from a threat? |

The bar for deportation splits in two main ways: 1. If you get ordered deported and leave: 10 years (no age exemption) 2. If you get ordered deported and get deported, as in ice puts you on plane or otherwise throws you out: permanent So depending on the circumstances he might need an I-212 before anything else. He should definitely FOIA EOIR, CBP, and USCIS and see what the hell they actually have. |
Re: Going back to when Bush was president.
Umm.. you have the exact same case as me.
Long story short, you were part of catch and release and most likely were 'No Show' at court hearing. Judge most likely initiated removal proceedings as you were absent.. it doesn't matter if you were a kid. You're probably SOL but you can request a FOIA. You don't have a ban right now but the moment you leave the country you would trigger the 10 year ban as Demise mentions above. You would need to leave the country if you ever want to AOS as you were EWI. That's the reason I couldn't do AP to fix my EWI. |
