I am a U.S citizen. My husband was recently deported back to England for overstaying his visa waiver. My kids and I have lost everything as he was our sole provider. We lost our home, car and all home furnishings. My kids are staying with different family. We've all been separated. My husbands son is also a US citizen and is now living In a tent since his mother no longer receives child support which my husband sent faithfully. My husband has never been In any trouble with the law. We, as US citizens have lost everything and need my husband back. Please help!!!
