Keep your head down when it comes to government posts

[Dave70]

Got word from the guy last night that he never received anything in writing or verbally at the airport other than telling him not to leave the gate after they handed him his passport. No escorts, no one watching him. He has a big red Deported stamp but no letter, no information on what the charges were or how long he is banned for. Seems like a very strange situation. I'm not sure I have ever heard of anything like this.

You mean he's still at the airport since last night?

No he is already home. They handed him his passport, told him which gate to go to and sent him through security by himself. He had coordinated his departure with them. No verbal or written documentation other than the red deported stamp.

Here is the stamp he received, I assume it is standard.

Go home new passport. Try again 6 months unless fingerprints in system

Fingerprints in the system. He had been here for 30 years.

Are they going to separate this man from his Indonesian wife? Forced divorce?

He had his agent check with immigration and found out that he is banned for 5 years for making the negative comment on the food program. The other things may have played a role in the decision but aren't being mentioned. Fair warning if your comments can be traced back to you and someone wants to cause a stink. He was reported by someone online. They told him that he would pay and for once the threats were real.

He was not married. I suppose they would have no qualms about deporting him even if he was.

Why ?
They can always meet / start another life in another country...
TBH, being married is not going to make a difference, and he should have know to keep a low profile !

Unlike what our two ‘experts’ above claim, being married to a WNI and having a KITAP does give you a better legal standing. Coming here for years on visa runs etc. don’t help.

It also shows you have family ties and established long-term contacts in the country. Immigration does consider these things. Don’t forget a sponsor is also financially responsible (for the deportation).

Obviously visa violations or activities that threaten the public order do make you vulnerable in any case.
