Reasons for Deportation

There are several reasons that might cause the U.S. Citizenship & Immigration Services to initiate removal hearings. Unlawful presence is a common one. This can occur when an immigrant that entered the country lawfully failed to maintain their status after it expired. Other violations of immigration laws, from illegal entry to not getting married after arriving on a K-1 fiance(e) visa are other examples. 

The commission of a crime is another prime reason for being placed in removal proceedings. Crimes involving drugs and  firearms can lead to deportation, as can domestic violence and aggravated felonies. There are also “crimes involving moral turpitude,” which are crimes that are morally reprehensible, including crimes involving theft and/or fraud.
