Niceville, FL Immigration Law Firms & Lawyers

My advice is to stop researching the internet to find the answer and instead schedule a consultation with a qualified attorney who can guide you through the situation. Your inquiry makes very evident that you have spent hours trying to ask as many sources the answer to your question. And while informed clients are always preferred, some obsess on questions they will not figure out on their own. Rather than drive yourself and those around you completely nuts, schedule an appointment with a qualified attorney and then seek another opinion from another qualified attorney. That should provide you with enough information. If this is the only charge you have ever had, you should be fine. Take it easy on trying to be your own lawyer and listen to some advice from a qualified professional. You are making way more out of the problem than need be.

The US Department of State publishes a visa bulletin every month that explains how long the wait is for each category of immigrant visa. The November Bulletin states that F2A applicants with a priority date of Feb 15, 2009 are eligible to apply for an immigrant visa. This would indicate that if you filed an I-130 petition for your husband now, he would have to wait about 3 years to apply for an immigrant visa.

If your husband has been deported twice, it is not likely you will be able to get him "legal" until he has lived outside the US for 10 years. There may be other options, but I would need to know much more before giving any advise.
