Non-LPR Cancellation of Removal

With immigration enforcement on the rise, including among immigrants with long-standing ties to the United States, “cancellation of removal” is an increasingly important form of immigration relief. “Cancellation,” as it is known, can allow green card holders and undocumented individuals who have lived in the United States for many years and have strong ties to the country to remain in the United States and either obtain or retain lawful permanent resident status.

There are two forms of cancellation of removal: one for individuals who are not lawful permanent residents, and one for lawful permanent residents (often known as “green card holders”). The materials on this page will guide you through the process of representing an applicant for non-LPR Cancellation.
