Deportation Attorneys Arlington Heights
Deportation Attorneys Arlington Heights
When foreign nationals do not follow proper protocol in the United States, such as obtaining a green card or visa, they are at risk of being deported. Removal proceedings are stressful and while they are sometimes lengthy, there are instances in which a person could be deported very quickly. Being placed in removal proceedings may seem like a hopeless situation, but that is not the case.
Before the government can deport you, they must provide strong evidence against you. The government is not always successful in deportation cases, and even when they are, you can still appeal their decision. A deportation attorney in Arlington Heights can give you the best chance of a favorable outcome.
Removal Proceedings
If you are placed into removal proceedings, you will receive a notice to appear from the federal government. This notice will inform you of the reason you are being considered for removal, and it will tell you in which court you must appear before a judge. You should take this notice to a deportation attorney who can determine if you can file a motion to dismiss the case. You can remain in the country without creating a deportation defense if this motion is granted.
There are many different types of removal relief you may qualify for, and a judge should inform you of these during removal proceedings. The types of relief you may be eligible for are as follows:
- Adjustment of status
- Cancellation of removal
- Voluntary departure
- Asylum
- Waivers of inadmissibility and removability
- Withholding of removal
- Convention against torture
- Suspension of deportation
Removal proceedings are often successful but even if yours is not, it is important to remember you still have options. You can file an appeal with the Board of Immigration Appeals and if you are still denied, you can file an appeal with the U.S. Federal Court of Appeals.
Common Defenses to Deportation
Removal proceedings are stressful, but they do not necessarily mean that you will be deported. There are many common defenses a deportation attorney in Arlington Heights will use to give you the best chance of staying in the country. If your spouse or child is a United States citizen, you can apply for a family-based visa. Once you have a visa, you can then apply for a green card to become a lawful permanent resident. If you fear persecution in your home country upon your return, you can also apply for asylum status.
