My fiancée in currently incarerated in an Ohio prison serving a possible 6 year sentence. He just recently got a detainer put on him because INS supposibly claims that he isn't a legal U.S citizen, which technically he isn't yet but is a green card holder. See he has lived here since he was 8 months old and is now 27. His father and his 2 siblings got their citizenship when he was in a juvienile detention hall for being an unruly child when he was 16, then his mother got hers when he was 20 and I was wondering if that is a factor on whether he is held liable for that and if there is any way we can get this darn detainer lifted. Any answers to my ?s would and will be so greatly appreciated, thank you for your time.

Certificates of citizenship of his parents are needed to prove that he is not illegal alien. When being detained with this charge, do not proceed on your own. Once things are messed up, it's hard to undo. My advice is retain an experienced immigration attorney ASAP.
