With any deportation case, including complex ones, we can often employ several methods to delay or cancel the deportation. For example, we have used:
- Cancelation of removal: This law allows you to apply for cancelation of removal, which will allow you to stay within the US. You usually can't have a criminal history, and the deportation must usually impose hardship on the family. Additionally, you must have lived within the US for a certain time. This method is useful once during your life.
- Adjustment of status: This allows you to become a lawful permanent resident, where you will receive your green card.
- Deferred action: This executive method allows a person to stay within the US for a specific period of time.
- DACA (Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals): This falls under deferred action and is specific to people brought into the United States as children. This program usually allows for up for two years of staying within the United States but is renewable. Participants can often become eligible for a work permit.
- Visas for crime victims: This method allows visas to be issued to victims of crimes, specifically people who fear deportation if they report the crime.
- Temporary work permits: While a deportation case is pending, this method allows you to apply for a temporary work permit that can help potentially stave off deportation.
