You would not want to go to Mexico. It is likely upon return that you will be detained and put into removal proceedings in order for the U.S. to try to deport you and take away your residence.

It depends on the Felony. Some can cause you problems while others may not.

It will depend on the felony charges and how the deferred adjudication was handled. I suggest that you contact an experienced immigration attorney for a face-to-face consultation and give him/her all of the facts surrounding your arrest. He/she would then be in a better position to analyze your case and advise you of your options.

You should not travel outside of the US until you have taken a copy of your criminal history to an immigration attorney for a full review. If you travel you may not be allowed to return in to the US.

Depending on all of the facts, it is quite possible you would be stopped, and maybe even jailed, upon your return. If it was a drug offense, the chances of being jailed are even greater.

It depends on what the felony was for and whether it makes you removable or inadmissible from the United States.

It is not a good idea for you to go to Mexico because immigration will likely check your background when you return.
