Overturning an Expedited Removal and 5-Year Ban: A Successful Case

by

Facing an expedited removal by Customs and Border Protection (CBP) and a subsequent 5-year ban from re-entering the United States was a devastating blow for our client. A dedicated professional with a spotless record, he was accused of misrepresentation during a routine entry inspection. The removal and ban threatened his career and personal life, separating him from his family and the opportunities he had worked so hard to achieve. Desperate to overturn this unjust decision, he turned to our firm for help.

Our legal team quickly recognized the urgency and complexity of his case. We conducted a thorough investigation into the circumstances surrounding his removal, identifying key procedural errors and misunderstandings by CBP officers. Our strategy focused on compiling robust evidence to support his innocence.

Through diligent preparation and strategic advocacy, we successfully appealed the expedited removal and overturned the 5-year ban. The appeal process was challenging, but our client’s perseverance and our dedicated efforts led to a favorable outcome. The decision was reversed, allowing him to re-enter the United States and continue his life without interruption. This successful case highlights the importance of skilled legal representation and the possibility of achieving justice, even in the face of seemingly insurmountable obstacles. Our client’s experience demonstrates that with the right support, overcoming the challenges of an expedited removal and re-entry ban is possible.

Immigration Success Stories – INA 212(a)(7)(A)(i)(I) + Expedited Removal Under 235(b)

by

When a foreign national tries to enter the U.S., CBP can deny the entry if CBP believes the foreign national  intends to remain in the US permanently but does not have a dual intent nonimmigrant visa nor an immigrant visa. This generally results in an expedited removal order which comes with a five year ban from entering the United States.  Let’s highlight two recent successful cases where we were able to remove these charges from our client’s records.

  1. A client from Brazil sought entry to the United States for a business conference but was denied entry due to INA 212(a)(7)(A)(i)(I) and removed. CBP believed the client lacked proper documentation for the intended stay. However, upon review, we discovered errors in the CBP’s assessment. Through meticulous documentation and persuasive arguments, we appealed the decision to the CBP. As a result, the removal order was lifted, and our client was granted a visa, allowing them to attend the conference and pursue their business endeavors in the U.S.
  2. A family from Mexico planned a vacation to the United States but encountered unexpected challenges upon arrival. Despite having valid tourist visas, they were detained by CBP at the border due to suspicions of insufficient documentation under INA 212(a)(7)(A)(i)(I) and removed. After thorough investigation and advocacy, we clarified the family’s intentions and provided additional evidence of their ties to their home country. Our efforts resulted in a huge victory and the 5 year ban was erased, allowing the family to reenter as tourist and enjoy their vacation without further hindrance.
