Have You Or A Loved One Been Detained By ICE?

For many people, applying for relief before the immigration judge is actually an opportunity that does not exist for people not placed in removal proceedings. For instance, people who entered the U.S. illegally, have been physically present in the U.S. for at least ten years, and have certain qualifying relatives, can pro-actively apply for “Cancellation of Removal” which results in legal permanent residency. While these cases are pending (sometimes up to three years), the applicant can obtain permission to work! It is highly advisable to speak to an experienced immigration attorney about your options in removal proceedings before going to your next court date.
Other options include applying for asylum/Convention Against Torture, adjustment of status, NACARA or review of TPS, or even termination following a motion to suppress (contesting removability). With the probability of sweeping comprehensive immigration reform, it makes total sense to “be here” for that day and use the removal process as a means to apply for relief. Even people who were previously removed/deported may apply to re-open their cases to apply for new relief, which might include legalization created under the rubric of comprehensive immigration reform.
