It can be very confusing for people facing immigration problems due to past crimes to understand the difference between deportability and inadmissibility. That is because there are two separate sections of U.S. immigration law that govern whether a crime will bar you from getting a green card (if you don’t have one), or whether it will lead to your green card being taken away. These are the laws of inadmissibility and the laws of deportability. It’s important to understand them as both might ultimately lead to you being deported or removed from the United States
DO YOU HAVE AN IMMIGRATION ISSUE THAT NEEDS SOLVING? ARE YOU TRYING TO GET A GREEN CARD, OR AVOID DEPORTATION? There are so many lawyers out there, and everyone is going to tell you they are the best. But when you — or a loved one — find yourself trying to remain in the United States, you can’t afford to make any mistakes, or have the wrong lawyer make them for you. So how do you cut through all the static and find the best green card lawyer you can find?
Everyone wants to get their immigration case done as quickly as possible, but long waits of a year (or many years) can be the norm. One of the most common questions we get is “can you speed up my immigration case?”
For many people, staying in the US can be a matter of life and death. Being deported could mean persecution in their own countries, torture, and/or death. But for many immigrants, extreme hardship means being forced to live without your family, children, spouse, or simply losing your access to financial stability for yourself or family.
We know how it goes. You’ve been removed (deported), but your life and family are back in the United States. The first thing to know is that even as an illegal immigrant who is being removed, you have rights. There are many legal ways to fight deportation, so don’t panic.
