Cancellation of Removal

INA Section 240A(b)

A second chance for those who have built their lives in the U.S.

Cancellation of removal under INA Section 240A(b) is an immigration relief available to individuals in deportation proceedings who can demonstrate continuous physical presence in the United States for at least 10 years, good moral character during that period, and that their removal would result in exceptional and extremely unusual hardship to a qualifying relative who is a U.S. citizen or lawful permanent resident. This is one of the most powerful remedies available in immigration court, but it requires exhaustive preparation and strong evidence.

Fundamental Requirements:
Continuous physical presence in the U.S. for at least 10 years before the date of the Notice to Appear (NTA).
Demonstrable good moral character during the 10 years of continuous presence.
A qualifying relative (spouse, parent, or child) who is a U.S. citizen or lawful permanent resident.
Demonstrate that deportation would cause exceptional and extremely unusual hardship to the qualifying relative.
No convictions for aggravated felonies or certain crimes affecting moral character.
Not having been previously ordered deported without successfully reopening the case.

Frequently Asked Questions

We answer your questions about deportation and immigration defense.

Can I avoid deportation if I already have a removal order?

Possibly yes. Depending on the circumstances, you can file a motion to reopen your case before the immigration judge or the BIA, especially if there is new evidence, a change in the law, or if you did not receive proper notice of your hearing. Options such as a stay of removal while the appeal is resolved may also exist.

How long does the cancellation of removal process take?

The process can take from several months to several years, depending on the court and the complexity of the case. During this time, if you obtain a bond, you can remain free with your family. Our team works to expedite the process as much as possible while building the strongest case.

Can a DUI cause my deportation?

A single simple DUI is generally not a direct cause of deportation, but it can complicate other immigration processes. Multiple DUIs, DUIs with injuries, or DUIs combined with other factors can result in deportation proceedings. Additionally, a DUI can affect your ability to demonstrate good moral character for cancellation of removal or citizenship.

Can someone with citizen children be deported?

Yes, having citizen children does not automatically prevent deportation. However, citizen children are a fundamental factor in the defense, especially in cancellation of removal cases where you must demonstrate that deportation would cause exceptional hardship to your children. Medical, educational, and emotional needs of the children are powerful arguments.

How much does an immigration bond cost?

Immigration bonds generally range from $1,500 to $25,000 or more, depending on factors such as criminal history, community ties, flight risk, and the judge's criteria. Our attorneys argue vigorously to obtain the lowest possible bond. If ICE sets an excessive bond, we can request a redetermination hearing before an immigration judge.
