Understanding Common Grounds for Removal

There are several grounds for deportation of non-citizens in the U.S., as set by the U.S. Immigration and Nationality Act (INA).

Some common reasons for deportation include:

  • Criminal convictions
  • Falsification of immigration documents
  • Violations of immigration status, including entering illegally

Removal Due to Criminal Convictions

Not all criminal convictions lead to removal. Certain crimes, such as domestic violence or drug smuggling, can lead to deportation proceedings. Severe crimes like terrorist activity will almost certainly lead to removal.

Immigration Fraud and Deportation

Lying on a green card or other immigration application is another common reason for removal from the United States. False marriages to enter the country are one well-known example of immigration fraud. Additionally, you can be deported if you falsely claim you are a U.S. citizen for benefits.

Immigration Status Violations

Immigration laws cover a number of other situations that make an immigrant eligible for removal. Entering the country illegally is one common example of an immigration status violations.

Other examples include:

  • Illegal voting
  • Overstaying a visa
  • Failing to maintain current status
  • Accepting public assistance while on a green card
  • Failing to notify USCIS when changing address or status
  • Taking a job when not on a visa that permits work
