2 THE IMMIGRATION PROJECT The Immigration Project is a legal aid organization based in Normal, Illinois, with a satellite office in Champaign. We provide direct legal services for immigrants residing in Central and Southern Illinois. The Immigration Project collaborates and partners with numerous community based organizations to serve the 85 counties in Central and Southern Illinois. We travel to meet with clients in Peoria, Kankakee, Carbondale, and Springfield. The Immigration Project provides four types of basic immigration legal assistance: Regional Immigration Information Clinics; Immigrant Victims of Violence Services; Citizenship Application Support; and General Immigration Application Support (Family Unification, Asylum, etc.).

5 WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT IMMIGRATION IN GENERAL
6 Immigration Agencies DHS not INS - As of 2003, no longer INS now DHS (Department of Homeland Security) USCIS- Citizenship and Immigration Services ICE Immigration and Customs Enforcement ERO - Enforcement and Removal Operations HSI Homeland Security Investigations CBP (Custom and Border Protection) Air, land and sea EOIR = IMMIGRATION COURT (DOJ AND ATTORNEY GENERAL)

10 LAWFUL PERMANENT RESIDENT CARD
11 FINDING THE A NUMBER and DATE OF RESIDENCY
12 DEFINING IMMIGRATION CONSEQUENCES
13 PADILLA V. KENTUCKY 13 In Padilla, the Supreme Court ruled that the Sixth Amendment requires defense counsel to advise defendants of possible immigration consequences associated with a plea. Failure to provide such advice constitutes ineffective assistance of counsel. Padilla v. Kentucky, 559 U.S. 356 (2010)
14 EXAMPLE OF CLIENTS: H1B hopes one day to be an LPR U VISA - hopes one day to be an LPR UNDOCUMENTED hopes to get DACA LPR hopes to permanently remain in US/ become a USC 14
15 ANALYSIS Is it a conviction? Category of crime Consequence
16 16 : What is a Conviction? Immigration defines conviction in the Immigration and Nationality Act - INA 101(a)(48)(A): The term "conviction" means, with respect to an alien, a formal judgment of guilt of the alien entered by a court or, if adjudication of guilt has been withheld, where- (i) a judge or jury has found the alien guilty or the alien has entered a plea of guilty or nolo contendere or has admitted sufficient facts to warrant a finding of guilt, and (ii) the judge has ordered some form of punishment, penalty, or restraint on the alien's liberty to be imposed.
17 : What is a Conviction? 17 NON-CONVICTIONS: Acquittals (Finding of Not Guilty) Nolle Prosequi/Dismissal No paper ; No information ; declining charges Convictions in proceedings that do not require proof beyond a reasonable doubt or otherwise comport with certain minimum standards. PRE-TRIAL DIVERSION - Admission to State s Attorney does not qualify as conviction, if no formal admission in court Juvenile Delinquency Vacated pursuant to Padilla
18 What is a Conviction? 18 CONVICTIONS Deferred Judgment? YES Expunged crime? YES Court Supervision? YES
19 Classification of Crimes under the INA Aggravated Felony, INA 101(a)(43) Crimes of Domestic Violence Crimes of Child Abuse/Against Children Crimes Involving Moral Turpitude (CIMT) Controlled Substance Offenses Firearm Offenses Money Laundering Alien Smuggling Prostitution and Commercialized Vice 19
20 Consequences: Deportable vs. Inadmissible vs. Ineligible 20 DEPORTABLE/REMOVABLE INA 237 INADMISSIBLE - INA 212 INELIGIBLE Good Moral Character bars under INA 101(f) Significant Misdemeanors STATUS TERMINATED/REVOKED
21 REMOVABLE/DEPORTABLE CIMT within 5 years of admission 2 CIMTS Aggravated Felony Failure to Register as Sex Offender Crime of DV/Stalking/Child Abuse/Violation of an Order of Protection Drug Offenses Firearm Offenses
22 INADMISSIBILITY INA 212 An Admission of guilt can sometimes be enough CIMT and Drug Offenses GREEN Card Holder Returning from a trip abroad can be found to be inadmissible and subject to deportation.
23 Convictions Affecting Admissibility and GMC: Crimes of Moral Turpitude: Convicted of or admits to essential elements of 1 or more crimes of moral turpitude Drug Offenses: Violated or admits to essential elements of violating any controlled substance law (except simple possession of 30g or less of marijuana) Reason to Believe a Drug Trafficker 2 or more offenses where the aggregate sentence actually imposed was 5 or more years Prostitution and Commercialized Vice Crimes 23
24 Good Moral Character For naturalization, for example, must be a person of good moral character during the statutory period (3 or 5 years). For Cancellation of Removal for NON-LPR, must be a person of GMC for 10 years The INA does not define a person of good moral character but lays out statutory and regulatory bars to a finding of good moral character in INA 101(f) and 8 CFR 316: Habitual drunkard (chronic alcoholic), Prostitution and commercialized vice Alien Smuggling Criminal convictions (or admissions) and controlled substance traffickers Polygamy Income derived principally from illegal gambling, Given false testimony for purposes of obtaining immigration benefits statement must be intentional and under oath Confined to a penal institution for 180 days or more Convicted of aggravated felony on or after November 29, 1990 Convicted of murder Engaged in persecution No outstanding order of removal 24
25 COMMON CRIMES AND IMMIGRATION CONSEQUENCES
26 26 Assessing Immigration Consequences A criminal defense lawyer representing a foreign-born defendant will want to understand how to analyze the criminal statue charged, recognize where there is divisibility, and mold a criminal record to avoid certain phrases and the more serious statutory elements. Mary E. Kramer, Immigration Consequences of Criminal Activity, 6 th Edition (2015)
27 27 Crimes Against a Person Battery 720 ILCS 5/12-3 Mens Rea - Knowingly 1) Causes Bodily Harm Causes Bodily Harm requires proving physical force satisfying 18 USC 16(a) 2) Makes Physical Contact Minimum conduct does not = "inherently base, vile, or depraved," or that it would "shock the public's conscience."
