An attorney from our firm will assist you with your application for Cancellation of Removal. The process varies depending on whether you are a green card holder who has been convicted of a crime or if you are a non-permanent resident. The U.S. Department of Justice enforces strict eligibility requirements on this form of immigration relief, such as:
- You have been in this country for 10 years continuously and have maintained your standing as a person of good moral character
- You have not been convicted of certain crimes
- Removing you would cause your spouse, child or parent who is a lawful permanent resident or citizen to suffer exceptional and extremely unusual hardship
- You have suffered domestic violence at the hands of a spouse or parent who is a U.S. citizen or lawful permanent resident
These are only a few of the qualifications which may apply in your case, and we will work closely with you to gather any evidence which may support your application.
