Understanding How to Avoid Deportation from San Diego California

A growing trend is that individuals are being deported or removed after an arrest or conviction from a criminal charge not related to their citizenship status. Many times, people are also deported or removed for merely being in the United States illegally. If you are facing deportation from San Diego CA, you should become familiar with your rights.

You May Be Deported from San Diego CA

Some crimes carry deportation or removal as a possible punishment, even for individuals legally in San Diego, CA.

Violent felonies and drug charges are generally grounds for removal. However, even misdemeanor crimes of moral turpitude such as theft or fraud- those that show lack of justice, honesty, or good morals- may be grounds for deportation or removal. If you are facing deportation or removal, you can contest the proceedings.

Those who seek asylum in the United States, and those who have lived in the U.S. for more than 7 years may be able to halt being deported or removed. Often times, many cities and states have "safe harbor" laws that allow offenders not to be reported to Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) unless specifically compelled to by Federal law.
