Helpless in colombia

[Fabijohns]

’ve been deported back to my native country where I’m lost, i lived in the USA my whole life. I have a husband and adoptive son six back in the USA. I’m in colombia they don’t speak Spanish, so even if my husband wanted to come and live here he wouldn’t be able to work. I’ve seen them once for holiday for 10 days, it was a magical time to be able to hold them again. My husband is coming to visite me for 5 days in a month. My question to you is that our problem right now is finding a place that my husband would wan to leave his whole life for, his family friends and his job of 20 years. He lives in Florida and I think our best bet is to try to immigrate to Canada, still in North America, but very far away from anything he knows, the weather scares him and so does starting over in a new country. This is what he wrote to me in an email.

(I love you and always have, and I would give anything to have you back with us. I just don’t see moving to Canada as a viable option. You are asking me to leave my home, my family, the country, my job, everything. We would be in Canada alone, with no support from anyone).

So my question is is this a valid answer from him and if so what are our options then, do we live separated for the rest of our lives or do we face our fears to reunite our family?

Thank you I’m desperate for any input. Looking forward to your reply.

Best regards,

Ive read your story, you've lived in US for about 20 years as a lawful permanent resident before your arrest, why didnt you apply to become a US citizen during that time? Becoming a citizen would have shielded you from deportation

Sounds like he's made his decision and isn't willing to relocate from the US. Yes - that's certainly a valid answer. It's really his choice where he wants to live and doesn't want to live. Based on your previous posts, he has an established career in the US as well. Moving to a new country is never easy and there are often financial and employment impacts.

So it sounds like your only option is to either find a way back to the US or live separately. We can't help you with this and I would recommend you join the following US immigration forum where there are people in similar situations to you: https://immigrate2us.net/forum/forum.php

While it might not be the answer you wanted to hear from him, it is in fact a valid answer. At least for him. I assume there are reasons that you can not return to the USA. You will both have to come to a decision about where you can be together if that is what you both want. Where that is, and what that might look like is something that only you and he can determine.

Best of luck to you in reuniting with your family.
