Hello. I was deported 8 and a Half years (in april 2006) ago from US with a 10 years bar for overstaying my student visa. My us citizen wife with whom I was married in 2004 filled I-130 petition on my behalf that was approved just a few months before my deportation. Assuming that I will be able to used my approved I-130 to get an immigrant visa after the ten years, I would like to know where to start from and knowing that I still have about one and a half year to go with the bar, Is it the wright time to start the process.

Fredric are you and the wife still married?

Thank you for you interest in this question.

Yes I and my wife are still married. she even filed a waver five years ago not long after I got deported but they said it was to early. We just gave up and decided to wait till after the ten years. I have no criminal record or anything like that.

Hello to everyone. I when to Us in 2001 on a student visa. Unfortunately I did not attend school in the academyc year 2002-2003 because of financial issues. Therefor my student visa became void. Durind that period I filed for asylum and my case was denied. I then got married in 2004 to a us citizen I we filed for a status ajustment. We when for our interview in october 2005 and the I-130 my wive filed for me was approuved. But I was notified by the immigration officer that I had to be deported because I overstaid my student visa and I was supposed to had lived the US long ago. So I got deported to cameroon in april 2006 with a ten years bar. I have ben living in Cameroon for the past six years now. The question is how can I get an immigarnt visa based on my approved I-130 after the 10 years i.e. in four years.
