It appears you will need to find a co-sponsor.  As to doing this fast, or dealing with USCIS this is a tough case since he was already deported.  Cases like this don’t usually lend themselves to DIY which of course leads to more cost and time for legal services.  You may want to research immigration groups or churches in your area to see if you can get some help with your situation.  Do a search for pro bono immigration services in your city.

 

 

 

Good Luck!

I agree  you will need a Joint Sponsor, that can be a family member with sufficient income.

 

Nothing fast, say 15 months for an IR1 and then a year or so for the waiver.

 

Big issue is the DV charge, Immigration has major issues with DV and that may be difficult to overcome.

 

He has bans presumably for illegal presence and of course failure to depart. Anything else?

 

Anyway consultation with a competent LAwyer familiar with waiver issues would be your first stop.

You need to realize that one he is he and working, you are likely to lose your SSI because it is based on household income. I am trying to understand how you received SSI while you were not a US resident.

SSI can continue when a person is living outside the US.  https://blog.ssa.gov/social-security-benefits-u-s-citizens-outside-the-united-states/

Sounds like he also has a 212(a)(6)(B)

SSDI and SSI are two entirely different animals.  SSDI is an earned benefit. SSI is a welfare program which varies by state. People need to be aware of the differences and qualifying factors.  People can and usually do qualify for one but not the other.  OP indicated she qualified for both. In my state, SSI requires residency and allocations for living expenses. Living expenses without payment for rent qualifies as income.

SSI (Supplemental Security Income) benefits cannot continue when the person is outside of the country for more than 30 consecutive days; SSDI and SS retirement benefits can. In order for an individual to reinstate SSI benefits, he/she needs to be back in the US for 30 + consecutive days.

Im not concered about ssi , 

Im concerned about my husband returning to United States 

 

That very much depends on his Immigration history.

 

You mentioned he has a Removal Order, Deportation I assume at least one year of illegal presence, a DV charge, was there any conviction? and what else?

 

Have you consulted with an Immigration Lawyer?

 

The first thing is to assess all the issues and then determine what can be filed and when.

With the deportation and DV charges, coming here will require a VERY good, and likely, VERY expensive attorney. Is he under a ban of any kind? He will require a waiver, most certainly (and those are outside my realm of knowledge)

 

With an income below the minimum required amount, you will need a co sponsor, most definitely.

 

It may be more feasible for you to live/move there.
