Hello,
I was deported from the US in 2017 at the Chicago POE after the immigration officer discovered I had obtained a B1/B2 VISA to come work in the US for a short time. I wasn't banned but my VISA was revoked.
I have since travelled to several European countries and returned home without any issues. My economic status has changed for the better too.
Right now, my wife and I are thinking of applying to move to Canada using the Skilled Worker/Professional Immigration basis. We want to make her the reference point for the application because she is more skilled and qualified.
So my question is, if we get to the level where I have to appear to get our VISA/PR, would my travel history to the US affect our application and what can we do to prevent any negative outcome.
We intend to tell the truth because my US deportation issue was a big mistake on my part and an unfortunate incident that I have left behind.
Please your comments are welcome.
To present day...Thanks for reading this much!
We moved to the UK in 2021...my wife got a fully sponsored scholarship for her PhD and she's about to finish. We declared this deportation issue when we applied to come to the UK and we had no issues. We got the visas.
Now we want to take advantage of the EB2 NIW route and so my question or my concern is about my deportation history and what we can do to not make it affect us. My wife is going to be the petitioner but is there anything you can advice us to do?
