More details to this question:
I have been living in the United states for about 11 years. I have a permanent resident card since 2006 and 2 daughters 10 and 6 who are US citizens. My current husband was not legally married to me when he came to the US. I helped him cause we couldn't live separated anymore. I didn't knew he could just walk up the port and claim asylum. If I knew that back then I'd have never taken the risk. Coming from Mexico at the port we were stopped and my husband was hiding in the car. We were caught there. Since my kids were with me and there is absolutely nobody here family wise they let me go. But they put a record on my file. A record of deportable/inadmissible alien Form I213. I wanted to know if it is possible to get a waiver for that. After my husband was detained he applied for asylum and then got paroled. Currently he is residing with us and has got work permit and social and is waiting for his court which is in 2017. We married last year. I don't want to leave this country or get se

Ignorance of the immigration law will not excuse what you did. I understand you were desperate, but you may lose your residence for alien smuggling for which there is a very limited waiver. You need to take the Form I-213 and any other documentation you received from CBP to an experienced immigration attorney for review. Whether a waiver will be available will depend upon the specific allegations in the Form I-213. You can read more about removal defense at http://myattorneyusa.com/removal-and-deportation-defense.
