As mentioned before, if he is working here on a B-visa, that is visa violation. If you report him, they are not going to extend his visa, even if they wouldn't go all the way to deport him.

You should advice them that coming to the US to have a baby is really not a brilliant idea in any way - yes, the baby is granted US citizenship (though I think they would still have to apply for that somehow..), but the parents ARE NOT. Just because their baby was born here does not mean that now they can just stay - if that was the case, US would have an influx of expecting mothers entering the country to give birth. A baby born in the US does not give foreign parents any right to LPR status.

You should call ICE. Your a** might be on the line here too, since you still have to remove conditions on your GC. "Harbouring" an illegal immigrant will not help your case. Report them, and if I were you, I would tell them that I am reporting them. maybe that will get them out of your house.

So the real problem is that you have an unwelcome house guest.

I would anticipate that it will take a few months for his extension to be declined, it is not impossible they could get an extension but usually you would need a good reason.

But you could certainly say that working is a breach of their visa conditions and compromises your own position so bye bye.

Sorry I forgot to update my timeline. I already removed the conditions,

but still this does not mean I am safe to shelter individuals that are violating the immigration law.

I did tell them several times that I want for them to leave my home and this is when they started

calling police on me.

How do I report them to ICE?

That is right.

As I said, at first they were coming just for a month as a tourist and that is why I decided I can give them a shelter.

But now I see that they had a plan, that I did not know about. I need to get them out of my house, that is a must.

Sounds like you need a locksmith.

:blush: The problem is that they will call police again. In their plan they are away ahead of me.

Last time they called police the "friend" asked the officer what happens if I change the lock.

Guess what? I do not have the right to do that :blink: That is what the police ofiicer told them.

years ago, my best friend's little sister was pregnant and homeless. i let her stay with me. about a month in she was a nightmare, arguing constantly and in general being intolerable. i asked her to leave. she refused. she went across town to visit my best friend and i took the opportunity to bag up her things and bring them to her, at her sisters house. i carried all her stuff up three flights of steps - all the while taking care of her things. afterall, i've had known this girl since she was eight and had no intentions of ending our friendship.

she opened the door,looked at her belongings and laughed at me -saying, you can't do that, i'm calling the cops.

i laughed it off and pulled up a seat - waiting for the cops to show up thinking that since i was the person with the lease and i had only offered to let her stay till she had a job and some money (of which she had both at the time).

sure enough, the cop told me that if someone lives in your residence for 30 days - you have no legal presence to kick them out other then formally filing to have them EVICTED. i would suggest going to your local courthouse and getting a court date. that is the only way to have them removed. and i would think that getting them evicted would be much faster than waiting on their visa decision and ICE.

these are the laws in virginia, i'm not sure if the laws are the same where you are - but if the cops have backed them about the thermostat thing, and there's a baby involved, doesn't look like you have many options.

she ended up leaving on her own in a couple days. i think her sister (my friend) talked some sense in to her young head. we're friends now, more because we are all like family, but good luck to you..i know how difficult it is to have someone fault you for being a good friend.

In my state the eviction process takes about six months.

I thought ICE would be acting fast, don't they?

I do not want them to live at my place anymore since they are not going leave the USA any time soon.

At first they came as a tourists and said they would stay just a month. Then they started looking for hospital where she can deliver the baby.

Then one day he said he found a job. They started talking about staying here illigally if they can't get a visa extention. This is when I asked

them to find another place and leave my home. And taht was the beginning of my nightmare. All of a sudden they stopped acting as "friends".

They became rude and demanding. In my try to make them go I turned the temperature in the house down to 67 degrees. Guess what?

They called police and complained that the temperature is not enough for their baby. The police officer ordered me to put the heat up.

Unbelievavble, right?

I do not want this people in my house. I want them out. And I do not know what to do to get my life back to the normal. I am so sorry I ever

considered them a friends. It is obvious that they had a plan to stay here. They misleadingly obtained a tourist visa and they knew they

will do anything to stay here forever.

I am mad, very mad with myself, that I sheltered them and gave them all the possible assistance to make them feel comfortable while here.

They did misuse my hopspitality.

You can ask them to leave and report them to ICE for the fraud that the commited.

If police officer shows up to your house, you can tell police that you are the owner and you dont want them in your place.

Plain and simple.

I am surprised officer at POE let them in when she was pregnant, most of the times they get rejected at POE.

I have never heard of any such law where you cannot evict someone if they stayed with you for 30 days.

The lease is in your name you are the owner or if you own the house you are the owner and it is upto you who can stay on your property.

Cop that told you has no clue - wht he is talkin (that means I can stay on someones prperty for 30 days and that gives me right to his property)

First time the cop shows up you tell them you want this person out of your house and that is job of cop to protect your property. (unless u wanna draw guns like we do in Texas ;) to protect our property)

Wow.. :blink: That's so outageous! I didn't know there is law like that -> "someone lives in your residence for 30 days - you have no legal presence to kick them out other then formally filing to have them EVICTED."

Then in future I should make every guest sign a contract stipulating the length and nature of their visit!

It's so disheartening how some people will take advantage of one's good nature or willingness to help out by opening their homes.

:angry:

You might want to follow the advice to contact ICE In America right or wrong we do have guilt by association. And if you have pending or future petitions this could only hurt you if it goes bad.
