Jurisdiction / State: Michigan
My friend has lived in the USA for 15+ years illegally along with his parents and siblings. His siblings are all older than him and have since gotten married and thus received legal residence. His father has passed and he and his mother are the only illegal ones left.
Years ago, when he was about 20 years old, he felt the threat of deportation and he and his mother fled to Canada. He lived and worked there for a few years.
Last year, he illegally crossed the border from Canada back into the US as Canada was preparing to deport him however they could not locate his citizenship from the eastern European country in which he was born.
He has lived in the US again for a year. A few weeks ago, however, he was raided by the FBI/ICE and brought to prison, along with his mother, presumably for illegally crossing the border and for their illegal immigrant status.
Having spoke with his brother, he could face a 3-10 year ban from the USA because he crossed the border illegally. His brother told me if they don't get him on that charge, immigration will book them for their illegal immigration.
So they are essentially facing two charges (to my knowledge, the brother is a dummy and their court date has not come yet) -- illegal border crossing and illegal immigration. Do these two have any chance of being set free for any reason? They have no crimes. The friend was ~5 years old when he was brought here and him and his mother have no family where they would be deported.
Does the new Obama executive action help at all?
