Had c1d visa to work on ship but jumped on land in usa(please help)

[JULIE KUMAR]

Hi,
I had C1D VISA(ONLY TO WORK ON CRUISE LINES). I only worked on ship for a year and then jumped
on land in USA. I have stayed here for 6 years. Now I am planning to return to my own country India this year.
Will I face problems in dealing with Indian immigration in Delhi or Mumbai ?
Will I be able to travel to USA or othe western countries in future ?
What I heard is once you don't have a valid visa then immigration staff stamps your passport which means I
will be banned for traveling to USA for 10years and hence it also stops my opportunity to travel to any other
part of world. I also heard that while facing Indian immigration incase of invalid visa they ask tons
questions and really grills you.
I am really interested to go back to India and then want to come back thru a proper channel. I will really
appreciate if someone can answer my question. I have already suffered a lot b'coz of my illegal status here.
KINDLY HELP.
Julie Kumar

Your illegal presence has earned you a 10 year bar from entering the US if you are able to obtain any US visa in the future. As it is, you are subject to detention and deportation. The US will not stop you from leaving. You are better off doing do on your own rather than via a deportation proceeding. If you need assistance returning to your home country, contact your consulate.

You are subject to a 10 year ban. However that applies to the US. I do not see how it stops you from traveling to any other part of the world.

Actually you do have another option: wait for the Obama "comprehensive immigration reform," if it ever passes.
