Q: Childs mother is being deported and the baby is a us citizen. Court deemed the baby would go with her. Is there anything
We can do? We reside in Florida. Please help..
A: You don't indicate who "we" are. But you need to consult an attorney, probably one knowledgeable in immigration law.
A: Particularly if the removal proceedings are still pending, the mother in removal proceedings should consult with a competent immigration attorney. For certain forms of relief in removal proceedings, the U.S. citizen child may count as a qualifying relative for purposes of being granted the form of relief in question. Again, the mother should consult with a competent immigration attorney if she has not already done so.
