Deportation Orders
Experienced Deportation Defense Attorneys in Nassau County – (516) 806-4070
Recent efforts from the federal government, most notably the executive branch, have increased the number of deportation orders and removal orders issued to people who have entered the country illegally or who do not have the proper paperwork. The United States Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) is tasked with ensuring anyone who has been ordered to leave the country do so according to set time limits. Otherwise, the deportation will become forced and the immigrant’s problems will multiply.
The Consequences of Deportation
After deportation, the individual is sent back to their country of origin. Re-entry to the deporting country often gets restricted for a specific period, sometimes permanently. The deportee may face challenges like rebuilding life in an unfamiliar place, emotional distress, and potential stigma. Legal re-entry might be possible with proper procedure.

Board of Immigration Appeals: Hearings & Arguments Explained
People facing deportation often have the right to try to stop the removal but do not know where to begin. Even undocumented immigrants can attempt to stay within the country through various means.
In most cases, the appeal process to remove a deportation order begins in one of two ways:
- Request a cancellation from the court issuing the deportation order
- File a complaint with the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), which should be processed through the Board of Immigration Appeals (BIA)
The BIA has the authority to extend the time you are permitted to stay within the country, cancel deportation orders, and even protect you from any future ICE efforts to deport you. It manages appeals on a case-by-case basis and often does it solely by reviewing the appeal on paper. You might not be able to schedule a hearing before the BIA but you should still prepare your appeal with an immigration attorney’s help to make it as effective as possible.
Your Argument for Stopping Deportation: Key Points to Prove
- Your removal is unlawful due to your immigrant status.
- Your removal will put you or your family in immediate physical danger.
- ICE agents illegally detained you in order to deliver the deportation order.
- The original deportation order was invalid.
Steps to Successfully Appeal a Deportation Order
To appeal a deportation order, you must express your intent to appeal when the judge makes the decision. Within 30 days, you must submit an appeal to the Board of Immigration Appeals using the Form EOIR-26. It’s advisable to have an attorney on your side when appealing a deportation order.

For people who are undocumented, the BIA might not even read the appeal to stop the deportation. The better solution may be attempting to adjust your status to receive a legal visa or lawful permanent resident (LPR) status. Call and talk to our Nassau County immigration attorneys to decide what to do.
Stop Your Deportation With a Well-Made Appeal
You do not have much time to lose if ICE has already targeted you for removal from the country. While it is true some parties are permitted to stay in the country for months or more before removal, some people face near-immediate deportation.
Start thinking about how you can appeal and stop it right now by contacting Kapoor Law Firm and our Nassau County immigration lawyers.
Reminder: Never attempt to resist ICE detainment or an arrest conducted by a police officer carrying out ICE orders. Doing so is a crime and can place your safety in jeopardy.
