Legal Question in Immigration Law in California
If someone has been deported is there a certain time frame that they have to wait in order to file their paper work to try for residency

Yes, they have to wait 10 years AND outside the U.S. Staying in the U.S. and trying to file for a waiver (the I-212) in conjunction with the I-485 will not work anymore.

It depends on their circumstances. Sometimes more than one waiver of removal is necessary. Feel free to contact me at 818 609 1953, [email protected] or visit me at http://www.yardum-hunter.com.
