A Moreno Valley man went in for a green card, but was deported instead

Ramon Ruiz Ortiz of Moreno Valley went to San Bernardino’s U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services office at 10 a.m. May 11 to interview for a green card giving him permanent residency. By 7 p.m., he’d been deported to Tijuana.

U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, or ICE, officials said he applied using a false name and that he had been removed previously and then had returned here illegally, making him ineligible for a green card, according to ICE.

Now, his family and an attorney representing the Mexican Consulate in San Bernardino are trying to figure out what happened to the man they describe as a hard-working husband and father with no criminal record. They contend he should not have been deported.

He and his family insist he is who he says he is.

Right after he was deported, Ruiz and his family believed that previous contact with Customs and Border Protection in 1999 is what led to his deportation, said attorney Hadley Bajramovic, who represents the Mexican Consulate in San Bernardino. Ruiz was aware of this, but a different attorney told him it wouldn’t pose problems.

But on Thursday, May 18, ICE issued a statement painting a different picture. The agency said Ruiz attempted to fraudulently obtain lawful permanent residence under an assumed name. An ICE official declined to say what they think his real name is, citing privacy concerns.

However, a May 11 U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services document detailing why Ruiz’s application to register for permanent residence was denied calls him Ramon Ruiz Ortiz.

"The 1986 amnesty was over 3 times the size they told us it would be because there was so much fraud used. We cannot tell who these people really are and most have used multiple names and fraudulent documents. Remove them all."

A lot of illegals use a lot of illegal names for their identification and they also use different and stolen social security cards. You are 100% correct in saying this caused the original number they told us that the amnesty numbers should have been. It caused the amnesty numbers to skyrocket!

I personally know a lot of family members where an illegal alien used their social security number. You talk about IRS problems. They had to prove to the IRS that it was their social security number being used. This happens a little too much.

The Imposter President Obama did not even care since he used fake names and fake social security names while in college. This is against all the laws in the U.S.A.

I agree to deport them all for breaking our laws.

I was in LE in the 60’s and handled several cases in which permanent residents were involved. Turns out they had applied under false pretenses and lost their permanent status.

Let me guess, he was also stealing someones tax returns using a stolen ssn also. The Libs always fail to mention that part.

Naturalized citizens can be revoked and deported if they are found to mislead or lie in their applications.
