Mother in US Illegally- I-130?

[Ben&Zian 4,398]

Because she has to answer honestly about where she has been previously. And lying just will cause more problems....

 

This is why I can't wait for immigration reform. Way too many silly loop holes in our system.

As she’s been here undocumented, how would immigration know the ban hasn’t been served outside the US? If she were to return to MX for us to file paperwork.

Wow!

 

What you suggest is lying to the immigration and no one will help you with this. 

 

Also even if she doesnt live with you it still might (and should tbh, looks like you have no regards for law ) cause your husband troubles with his work. He really should know better.

Quite common it seems for things not to come up under a FOIA.

 

And people get to the Interview and are asked about there prior issues....

 

What does she have to show she has been living ion Mexico for the last 20 years, you can not live in the US without leaving a paper trail and anyway you have to give details of your prior residences.

I’m not trying to cheat the system, only to understand. 

 

I realize she broke the law multiple times and there are consequences for that. It doesn’t change the fact that she is his mother and he feels responsible to do whatever he can (LEGALLY) to help her situation.

Then he needs to tell her to leave and not lie.

We actually have told her we will financially support her if she returns to MX, as well as allow his minor brother(US Citizen) to live with us. She doesn’t want to do that, so I’m just trying to determine our options (if any) for helping her. We have no intentions of lying to immigration, I’m just trying to fully understand how the process would work.

The consequence would be to serve the ban by exiting the US asap. 

 

Where was the realization of consequence when she continually and illegally entered the US DESPITE her knowing about the ban?

We have no control over that, I agree she was wrong.

[Boiler 45,519]

Assuming she is 9C, does sound like she is, then she basically has a 10 year bar outside the US and then to come back will need  a waiver filed by a qualifying relative, spouse, parent are the usual ones. Not children.

 

Dates of entry may be important, 9C came in 1996 I think.

At this point her choices are leave the US or continue to live her illegally. There is no quick and easy fix to this and even if she leaves the US there is no guarantee she will ever be eligible to obtain a green card and return.

[WeGuyGal 1,052]

The one thing you have control over is to send her back to MX. Everyone is telling you she has no choice but the exit the US

There is no other option but leave US. 

 

I mean she screwed up by hopping the border. What did she think was going to happen?

[KMArmenta 7]

Would there be essentially no option for me to sponsor her for a work visa because of these things as well?

Well as a non immigrant theoretically, D3 waiver, but practically? What is her skill set?

[Ben&Zian 4,398]

People must deal with the consequences for their decisions, regardless of what reason they had for doing it, they still did it and should face the penalties to the fullest for it.

 

She might not be able to even get an immigrant visa, the chance of her getting any other sort of visa is basically 0% chance ever at this point.
