Grounds for Deportation

Any individual within the United States who is not a U.S. citizen may be ordered to leave the country if the government has grounds for deportation. There are several offenses that can qualify a person for deportation. Sometimes visitors, immigrants, and permanent residents are mistaken for someone else or are wrongly accused of an offense and may be wrongly deported.

If you or someone you know is at risk of being deported, contact the Orange County immigration attorneys of Garg & Associates, P.A. today at 949-540-6704.

Reasons for Deportation

There are many reasons that a person may be deported out of the United States. Anyone who is staying within the country illegally, or who is here legally but has committed a qualifying criminal offense, may be subject to relocation outside of the country. Some of the common grounds for deportation include:

  • Failing to meet visa requirements to remain in the country
  • Staying in the country after one’s visa has expired
  • Crimes against a person (murder, manslaughter, rape, kidnapping)
  • Domestic violence crimes
  • Sexual offenses
  • Crimes against the government (counterfeiting, mail fraud, bribery, tax evasion, perjury)
  • Fraud crimes
  • Drug offenses
  • Firearms offenses

Violating the law in any of these ways can be grounds for deportation. Unfortunately, sometimes foreign nationals or permanent residents are wrongly ordered to be deported but do not consult with a lawyer to receive the legal assistance that they need. If you or someone you know is at risk of being deported because of his or her immigration status or because of an issue regarding his or her paperwork or identification, an experienced immigration lawyer can assist you with your case.
