Serious illegal immigration question?

I am married to an LEGAL immigrant. He has been in the US about 11 years. The problem is that a year ago his mother called him to let him know that his brother, sister, and her husband were coming to America, illegally of course and that they had no where to go. His sister left 7 kids behind and she is 26 y.o. My husband let them stay with us! We fought non stop about this but he said he would not let his family live on the street. So they are here, freeloading, messing up my house, disrespecting me on a daily basis. I got fed up and told them to get out. His sister called me an "American *****" and then she pushed me. I pushed her back and she fell down, hit the table and got a little scratch. Went to the police station(in our neighborhood) I got arrested and kicked out of my own house for a week because they said I was the agressor! Enough is enogh! How do I get them out of my house without violence? At this point I might just file for divorce and let them have this darn house. HELP

See thats the thing!! I ABSOLUTELY told the cops that they are illegal and they said they could not do anything because they were living in my house for a year and that they had RESIDENCY there!! They said they could not be put out. My husband lied and said that they pay rent. The cops did not listen to me!

Did you tell the police they were illegal immigrants? If not, then you should have.

Just report them. They don't belong in the country illegally and if they can't handle that it isn't your problem.

Additional: Immigration will listen to you. Don't tell your husband beforehand so he won't be able to prepare. If they don't have rental receipts, then they can't prove that they paid rent. Also, if your husband can't show himself as receiving the exact extra income that they were supposedly have paid in rent, then that shows them as probably lying about paying rent. Also, if they were to have paid rent, then he would have had to claim it on his tax return, which I'm certain he didn't.

As I said, don't warn him beforehand. The bad thing about lying as he and they have done is that there are a lot of ways they can be tripped up in their lies. But if they have warning, then they might prepare something.

Also, people can get into this country legally, so there is no good reason for them to have entered illegally and placed any kind of a strain on you. The entire situation is their fault and they should be made to take responsibility for it and the consequences that come with it.

Call immigration. I know you will be getting your husband into trouble too, but there is NO reason you should have to feel like the outcast in your own home! That wouldn't fly, even if they were all American born!

The police won't do anything. You must call INS. If they seem to be taking their time...file an eviction notice with your local municipal court and have them served with a 30 day notice. It may actually take 30 days, but you can LEGALLY evict these 'residents'! Good luck! I don't know how you've kept from going postal~

This may sound mean but CALL THE I.N.S!!!! They will be deported most quick like! 800-375-5283 Or call the F.B.I @ 202-324-3000

As a rule I am opposed to divorce. In the case you describe, it may be your only option. If your husband won't support you, there is little you can do. If you report them to immigration officials and they take action, you are probably headed for divorce anyway.

Contact ICE at 1-866-347-2423. Turn them in, you don't have to put up with that. Good luck and Godspeed.

Call immigrations. If they are really illegals as you say, the minute immigrations officers locate them, they will be deported back to whereever it is they came from.
Do not give up your house to these people, you worked for what you have, do not let them just take it away! You might want to consider losing the husband too, he doesn't seem to be very loyal to you and your marriage.

Turn them in. Simple. Granted that won't win you any points in your relationship with your husband, but as you say, enough is enough. They are illegal. Its not for them to like or dislike the law and it certainly doesn't matter whether they believe in it or not. The bottom line is that they are illegal. Yes it is harsh to do that to someone, especially a relative of sorts, but the only way that people will respect the laws of this country is by following them. Especially the ones we don't agree with. There is a way to get laws changed yes, but breaking the law is not the correct path to doing that.

First try to talk to your husband and let him know that the hospitality is over and was only for short term and if he doesn't see it like that, take matters into your own hands. I would hurt their wallet by calling Immigration services and have them deported it cost 3000 dollars to come back to the US Illegally I believe. Don't let them have anything, that's exactly what they probably want you to do including your husband turning on you,but he is an *** for allowing this to happen so kick his *** to the curve for not defending his immediate family (which is you) against his other family. Besides you never asked for all this to happen so it is not your fault. I'm an immigrant as well but even in my country of birth I would not allow this to happen.

Call immigration. Dont talk to the local police Call the INS!!!


?
Forget the Government (police, INS, etc) . . . it won't help. Hire the best divorce attorney you can afford and go to war! You need an Order of Possession of the house, car, etc., plus Restraining Orders on H and his offending relatives. If the Judge won't do it, go on talk radio and out him for harboring illegals. War . . . Total War!!!

Call immigration, they'll get them out quickly.. it's not fair for you to be in this situation, because with you being the full fledged citizen you'll be charged with harboring illegal immigrants if you don't do something. This happened to a friend of mine. She met a man from Mexico on a work permit, fell in love, had his baby and then got married for him to be a citizen. Within a few years he invited his 2 brothers and sister to live with them in a 2 bedroom apartment and she is having a hard time dealing with it because they disrespect her and her baby and only 1 of his siblings is here legally. Good luck.

Call the immigration authorities for starters.

I'm a legal immigrant. But I kinda understand why your husband wants his family to be with him. But the problem is that they are in the states illegally and they don't get along with you...

If I were you, I would discuss this issue once again with your husband. And if he says he needs to choose his family over you, you probably need to think about getting a divorce and call ICE.


UsCiS-ReP
Call US Immigration & Customs Enforcement. Dont let them have your house, ICE will do something about it for you, especially if you filed the police report. Their telephone number is 1-866-347-2423. Good luck!

I can relate, I used to live in a hispanic ghetto,,, they love themselves and think that everything they do is blessed by God,,,that is why she has 7 dam kids at 26 and not a pot to piss in


One Sexy Jeep Girl
That just doesn't seem right at all. I'd call INS.


feanor
Drop a dime on them to the INS or whatever agency they are today.

I forgot the agency's name when the reorged under Homeland Security...Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE)


citronge69
There are several things you can do or take action. Try the sites below, and make sure to change the state/location in which you live. Get legal protection as well. "If you don't know your rights, you don't have any!"

The best answer.... pay a couple hundred dollars and consult with an attorney who specializes in family law.

YOU POOR GIRL, THE POLICE ARE SO OFF ON THEIR ACTIONS I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO SAY REGARDING THEIR IGNORANCE.
CALL ICE -THESE ARE JUST THE TYPE OF LAWS THEY ENFORCE, THEY WILL ACT ON IT , TRUST ME CALL THEM NOW!
1-866-347-2423 www.ice.gov

And please let us know if there is anything else we can do to help you, and definitely keep us posted on this!

And now everyone knows why I can't stand all the people who say let them stay!


Rob D
I'm confused. If the authorities arrived, why are illegals still in your home. You should've turned them in.

Screw calling the cops, they have no authority. Call INS and let them know your situation. Get them deported. Then, get yourself a divorce. Your husband doesn't love you if he let's ANYONE disrespect you. You deserve better.

Call immigration. Your husband should not have put you in that situation. (My Fiancee's family is from Mexico, I can talk all I want lol He feels the same way I do), It may cause a fight but at the same time, your husband doesn't care about you and neither does his family. I say call them or move out for a while with the kids. That will press the point home to him.

Call ICE and a good divorce attorney.

Call immigration and then call a good divorce attorney and lose the loser husband!!!

I feel bad for you but I hate to say this your husband is a felon
and you are his accomplice.

On a fresher note call immigration and report the whole lot,
but only if you are serious about leaving your hubby, cause he is
going to be deported too.

Have you considered calling immigration? Maybe there is a way to do this anonymously, so that your husbands family will not know about it. If you do this though, you might want to make sure that you don't get "in trouble" for having them at your house. As for your husband, I would sit him down and talk to him about the "incident" with his sister and let him know how you feel. Good luck!
