Q: Can you get deported for applying to a learner's permit in virginia.
Let's say that you are an illegal alien with a deportation order and you are a minor trying to apply for a learner's permit but you need to get a court order showing that you are an emancipated minor is acceptable to drive as a minor but you have a deportation order can you get deported as a minor and an illegal alien presense.
A:
If you are an undocumented minor with a deportation order and you're seeking a learner's permit in Virginia, your primary concern should be your existing deportation status. Applying for a learner's permit typically requires identification and proof of residency, which might draw attention to your immigration status.
When applying for emancipation to obtain a learner's permit, the court process could expose your situation to authorities. While the act of applying for a permit itself doesn't directly cause deportation, your interaction with government agencies could lead to a review of your status.
Given your deportation order, any interaction with legal or state institutions could potentially trigger enforcement actions. It's essential to consider the risks and seek advice from legal aid or immigration support services to navigate your options safely.
