It depends on a lot of factors.

If he is deported, he will be out of the country for at least 5 years, maybe more. His ability to return and the timing depends on why he is being deported, you, your family and other circumstances. YOu should not assume there is no way to prevent deportation. If you are part of a valid marriage, you may be able to prevent deportation. Your time is definitely limited and you should consult with an attorney immediately.

This is a difficult question to answer when it all depends on the officer. It depends on which country she is from as well. Mexico has had a pilot program for greater efficiency. The normal wait is about 11 months but a request for expedited processing can be made given certain circumstances.

I would need to ask 100 questions before I could reply. The facts are very slim.
