Hello. Yes, certainly your employer may face trouble. Do contact a knowledgeable private attorney who will be happy to help you. You may phone my law firm on Saturdays and Sundays, as well as weekdays. Immigration and Visa law is federal law, so any knowledgeable licensed attorney may assist you. This website provides general information and general principles of law and does not provide private legal advice. Some attorneys are available seven days for emergency legal needs. Many attorneys will confer initially at no charge. Then, if legal work is performed, some attorneys will provide a reduced fee for financial hardship. Some attorneys may also assist you in limited scope manner to conserve legal costs. All the best.

Under federal and state law, any employer who knowingly hires an illegal alien in the United States could very well be subject to a civil and criminal action. Based upon what you have written about, a deferred action letter by your employer could expose him or her to problems.
