Grounds For Deportation In The U.S.

The government may initiate removal proceedings for several reasons, ranging from administrative errors to serious legal issues. Understanding the specific reason behind the government’s action is the first step in building a strong defense. Common reasons the government may initiate these proceedings include:

• Criminal convictions: Certain offenses, including aggravated felonies or crimes involving moral turpitude, can trigger deportation. If you get a conviction, you could be deported even if you are a long-term green card holder.
• Visa overstay: Remaining in the country after your authorized stay has expired is a common reason for the issuance of a Notice to Appear.
• Unlawful presence: Entering the United States without inspection or proper documentation can lead to removal proceedings.
• Immigration violations: These offenses include actions such as committing marriage fraud, failing to notify the government of an address change or violating the specific terms of a nonimmigrant visa.

No matter the reason listed on your paperwork, there are legal strategies available to challenge the government’s claims. Our legal team will analyze the facts of your arrival and your history to find a way to keep you here.

Your Legal Options If You Are Facing Deportation

Facing a judge in immigration court does not mean you will automatically leave. There are different ways to stop a deportation, including:

• Cancellation of removal: This is available to certain long-term residents who can show that their deportation would cause true hardship to a U.S. citizen or resident family member.
• Asylum application: If you fear persecution in your home country based on your race, religion, nationality, political opinion or membership in a particular social group, you may apply for protection.
• Adjustment of status: Some individuals in removal proceedings may be eligible to apply for a green card through a family member or employer.
• Withholding of removal: This is a specific type of protection that prevents the government from sending you to a country where your life or freedom would be threatened.

These options are highly technical and require a massive amount of evidence. We will work with you to gather the documents and testimony needed to prove to a judge that you deserve to stay.
