What is a Removal Proceeding and What Happens During One of These Proceedings?

The purpose of a removal proceeding is for an immigration judge to determine if a particular individual should be ordered removed from the United States or if he or she has relief from removal. The process begins when Immigration and Customs Enforcement provides the individual with a Notice to Appear – sometimes called an NTA.

An immigration court judge presides over removal proceedings. He or she will listen to arguments made by both sides and will issue one of three possible decisions –relief from removal, an order of removal, or a termination order. A knowledgeable Chicago immigration attorney can represent you at your removal proceeding and will strongly advocate for your legal interests before the immigration court.

Potential Grounds for Being Removed/Deported

There are three basic grounds that an immigration court judge could use as a basis for removing/deporting someone. Those grounds include the following:

• Having certain criminal convictions on your record
• Working in the United States without permission or violating various terms of your lawful admission
• Coming into the country without permission
