Most common reasons why a person may face removal proceedings from the United States

Some common reasons for facing deportation from the US include:

• Marriage fraud in the United States ;
• Exceeding the allowed visiting time;
• Arrest, charge or conviction for a crime;
• Failure to comply with the terms of the visa. For example, working without a permit;
• Violation of a protective order;
• Submission of false information in immigration applications.

Removal proceedings begin with a notice to appear (NTA), detailing the reasons for deportation. 

Note: Deportation is usually not immediate, so the process can last months or years. This gives you the opportunity to defend yourself. Our attorneys at Lluis Law have helped many individuals maintain their US residency.

What are the most common Defenses against deportation?

The most common defenses available in deportation proceedings are the following:

• Apply for lawful permanent residency through a family member, employer, as a victim of domestic violence (VAWA), or other eligibility;
• Eligibility for cancellation of removal. This relief is only available to those who have lived in the US for a specific period and meet certain requirements;
• Eligibility for protection under the Convention Against Torture (CAT), asylum or refuge.
• Although rare, in exceptional circumstances, an immigrant can be recognized as an American citizen during removal proceedings. 

What does the 10-year law mean?

The 10-year law on immigration is not a real law. It is generally used by certain individuals to scam immigrants. 

The origin of this belief comes from one of the requirements for cancellation of deportation, which is having lived in the US for at least 10 consecutive years without being deported. 

However, living in the country for 10 years does not guarantee obtaining lawful permanent residence.
