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.Currently I have a
valid passport(not expired). 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.

The Indian immigration will question you, but cannot stop you from entering India, since you have a valid Indian passport. But you will now face 10 year ban (for entry in the US) because of your illegal stay in the US.
