removal proceedings...not sure.

[Chaka_HS]

about 6 years ago i received a letter saying ins find out i was working illegally with a f1 visa and i should report to baltimore airport for removal....i never did..now i've been married 6 months to a us citizen(woman). i never got a A# so i can't check my status on the 800#. should i just file the i485 with all files required for marriage based? or do i need to see a judge?

I don't think marriage based filing will work since you have already been ordered to be deported.

but i never had a case in front of an immigration judge...

The judge could have made a ruling in your absence - when you failed to appear.

if i were you, i'll still make efforts to file for a family based green card, if it is denied you would have satisfied yourself that you made an effort
