Question

My husband was convicted of a third degree distribution. He is from the UK. The judge in NYC sentenced him to a year in jail.

I am a United States Citizen. We also have a child together. His conviction occured in the us. He will face deportation. Can he ever re-enter the US?

Answer

You have a long and very tough battle ahead of you, there is a possibility that he might not return, however there are hardship waivers available to him, he can also try to go back to the criminal court and try to change his conviction if that is possible. this sounds like a highly fact specific case and you need to consult an experienced criminal and immigration attorneys. Good Luck
