Deportation or Removal

An illegal immigrant may face deportation from the United States because of illegal entry into the country or because he or she has overstayed an original visa. For these individuals, depending on their situation, options that may be available include asylum, cancellation of removal, or adjustment of status.

For permanent residents and others facing deportation due to criminal convictions, the immigration court will decide whether the conviction is grounds for deportation and, if so, whether the person is eligible for a waiver, such as 212(c) or 212(h)  or cancellation of removal. A 212(c) waiver is deportation protection for those individuals who have rehabilitated and reformed their lives. A 212(h) waiver allows individuals to obtain legal status through a family member even though they have a criminal conviction.
