Legal Question in Immigration Law in Georgia

You are able to start the process again but your fiance would have to go through Consular Processing since he is outside of the country. I can not give you an estimate of how long it will take. That would depend on your status (U.S. Citizen or Permanent Resident), the processing timeframes for the I130 petition when you file, etc. All I can tell you is that you should start as soon as possible. Give me a call at 1-800-408-5818 or email me at [email protected] for assistance. I also need to know why your fiance was deported among other things. Take care.

I am sorry to hear about this stressful and desperate situation. The previous lawyer had forgotten to mention that your fiance's visa will be denied because of a prior deportation and unlawful presence (I assume, of over a year) in USA. Provided that you are a US citizen (it's not clear from your post), to overcome a denial, it's very likely that he will have to apply for a hardship waiver and a permission to reapply after deportation. Both waivers are very difficult to have approved. If waivers are approved, then a visa will be issued.

It's possible that he already had a deportation order - which may explain why he was deported so soon and without going through the Immigration Court removal process.

It depends on why he was deported and what exactly happened during his stay inside the U.S. before he departed from the US. It appears your fiancee will have to submit waivers and get them approved in order to return to the US based on his relationship to you.
