The risk of deportation is a very real and very frightening possibility for a number of immigrants in the United States. Facing removal proceedings can be frustrating and confusing, especially since it is likely the first exposure many may have with the US justice system. Removal is a process by which the government attempts to remove a non-citizen from the United States and place her in her country of origin or another country that will accept her. However, an order for deportation doesn’t guarantee removal. An alien who is subject to removal proceedings has certain rights that if properly defended can prevent deportation.
As a handful of major metropolitan cities and states begin issuing shelter-in-place orders and possible future quarantine we are left asking ourselves questions such as, “Is it legal for me to go outside anymore?” “The airports are still open, can I fly?” “Will I get arrested for walking my dog?” That last question might sound a little ridiculous, but during an unprecedented time, with local officials issuing different statements around the country, its difficult to discern real news from fear-mongering.
In this article, we discuss what documents and materials you should collect before sitting down to fill out Form I485 for Adjustment of Status. This is the main USCIS application for immigrants who are eligible to apply for lawful permanent residence.
