It depends on the sentence and various other factors like how long you have been in the U.S., when you got your Green Card, etc. *Removal/Deportation Representation* It is critically important that you get qualified and expert representation for the deportation/removal hearings. The Government will try to get the deportation issued. Neither the Immigration Judge, nor the Trial Attorney are there to help you. There are different forms of relief available which could result the granting of Lawful Permanent Residence. However, this requires large applications to be prepared and the necessity to prepare for trial. My firm has done this for several years, and if done properly, there is a very reasonable chance that it will be successful. If not done properly, the deportation order will be issued and your current way of living in the United States will end and you will either be on the run or be forcibly removed from the United States.

The fact that you are here illegally is enough for you to be deported with or without the felony charge. Common law marriages are not recognized and the fact that you have a U.S. Citizen child and another child on the way probably will also not help you. Is your criminal case pending or have you already been convicted. If you have not already done so, you should contact an experienced criminal law and immigration attorney for a face-to-face consultation and give him/her all of the facts surrounding your situation. They would then be in a better position to analyze your case and advise you of your options.

Find yourself a knowledgeable, experienced and competent attorney who handles immigration work relating to the potential immigration consequences of criminal activity and schedule some time to discuss you case. And do that immediately. Whether a criminal offense will or will not subject you to the institution of proceedings seeking your removal and deportation from the US is a difficult question to answer when I do not have a copy of the police report, the charges filed against you by the prosecutor and the court disposition of the matter. So to give you an answer based on the facts that you have provided would be far short of giving due consideration to the questions you have asked. Moreover, if your case remains pending a resolution, obtaining the immediate assistance of an immigration attorney may help you avoid potential adverse consequences. Either way, you need to get on the ball and find someone with whom you can discuss these issues and you need to do that now. Good luck.

You will definitely be referred to see an immigration judge but whether you get deported depends upon how you handle your situation. You need to take the disposition from your conviction to an immigration attorney immediately and they will determine what can be done.
