hi,

what is the risk i am taking by overstaying my visa?. can i be deported or jailed since INS know my adress. i am also working illegaly.

Im from tunisia
thanks
 
Overstay more than 180 days triggers 3 or 10 years entry bar to the US.
Needless to say, illegal work is illegal, and probably you are not paying tax either, whcih is another problem.
 
I entred US on a B1 visa, I hv 3 months legal stay. i am staying and working coz i need medical treatment i cant find in ly country. i heard that i can get in trouble coz i am from an arab country. is that right?
 
Anyone who is overstaying and working gets into trouble irrespective to where they are from.
You may be able to get extension if medical condition is the reason, but unauthorized work is another story.

You should talk to lawyer rather than this board.

I talked to a lawyer, he told to try to find an hospital to treat you for free or to prouve financial support. so icant ask for extension. i hv no finance to covert my medical examination, that's why i have to work illegaly. i just scare to get in trouble like i hear on Tv because of my origin. i hv no way, i cant survive without medical fellow up..this should a country of humanity
 
it's also a capitalistic world. The hospital does not have to treat you for free just because you can't pay for treatment. The INS also does not have to forgive you for breaking the law because you need medical treatment. It's a reality, however harsh.
 
You need suggestions for rectifying your situation where you are breaking several laws simultaneously? You posted a fortnight ago and good more or less the same advice. Asking again and again will not change the answer people will give you.
 
who care?, maybe i am the only person btwn 12millions illegal who try to correct this. i try to find a solution...i am good illegal alien man!

If you take a defiant attitude, it's end of the story. You can do whatever you want, but you have to pay for it by yourself.
Medical treatement is one of things that are listed as B purpose. If you cleared illegal work part, you should be able to get extension.

No it is not a defiant attitude, i just try to save my life. i know it is not correct to overstayin and workin illegaly but sometimes we fell in obligation with sorrow to do it.

my case has no cure, doctors tell me i need meds for all my life, and i hv to follow up date to date...otheriwse a transplantation no easy to get in my homeland. if i ask for extention, how do i prouve my financial situation, i hv no body in this country. do you hv a suggestion?, through associations? i dont see another way except illegal work and with this i am in financial and housing troubles...now. and can i get long extension for years?.
