Prioritize checking your record\u2014and possibly file defenses like asylum or Cancellation of Removal for non legal permanent residents to counter these grounds of removal.\u00a0 A \u201cdefense\u201d, like asylum, however, must be (1) truthful, <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">i.e.<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, cannot be frivolous, otherwise, you face a permanent bar to ever obtaining status in the U.S., and (2) filed within 1 year of entry (with certain exceptions).\u00a0 If you file outside of 1 year, you may be entitled to \u201cwithholding of removal\u201d or relief under the \u201cConvention against Torture\u201d, both of\u00a0 which have a higher burden of proof.\u00a0 And, for Cancellation of Removal, you need to be here for at least 10 years and have a U.S. citizen spouse, child, or parent who will suffer exceptional hardship if you are removed from the U.S.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<h3>How has expedited removal expanded in 2025, and does it apply to me?<\/h3>\n<div>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Since January 2025, it targets anyone undocumented within 2 years of entry, including parolees, allowing quick deportation without a judge.

Dec. 216 (2025) in which the Board held that U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (\u201cUSICE\u201d) can hold someone in detention, despite a long time of residence in the U.S., if they entered the U.S. illegally.\u00a0 It is possible to make a \u201cparole request\u201d with USICE if there are extenuating circumstances to seek release.\u00a0 Although a grant on this request seems unlikely.\u00a0 Therefore, only those who have entered legally or are legal permanent residents are entitled to be released on bond.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<h3>What relief options exist if I&#8217;m in removal proceedings?<\/h3>\n<div>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Common defenses: asylum (persecution fear), cancellation of removal (10+ years U.S. ties, exceptional hardship to citizen family), withholding (higher bar than asylum), or adjustment via marriage.
