Legal Question in Immigration Law in New York

immigration

my husband recieved voluntary deportation to his native country of albania approximately one year ago. He left when he was suppose to and followed everything according to procedure in addition to reporting to the american consul upon arrival. Currently his case is in the final stages of processing at the national visa center. However, I am concerned because the DS230 form inquires his work history. During the five years he was in the united states and currently his cousin was and is using his greece residency to live and work in greece. Is there any way this can interfere with the processing of my husbands immigrant visa to the united states?

Re: immigration

Did you husband trigger a bar from readmission when he departed the UNited States?

The bar is triggered if he was in the United States for more than 180 days or 1 year after the expiration of his status. The bar is either 3 or 10 years depending on how long he was in the United States unlawfully.

Also, what was the basis for the institution of deportation proceedings against him?
