Updated Immigration Consequences of Convictions Checklist (2024)

IDP has updated our two-page checklist which summarizes the criminal bars to removability (inadmissibility and deportability) as well as criminal bars to citizenship and forms of relief such as Asylum/Withholding of Removal, 212(H) waivers, Cancellation of Removal for LPRs and Non-LPRs, VAWA cancellation, DACA renewal, and TPS.  This is a national resource.

The 2024 update has INA cites and relevant case cites with hyperlinks as well as expanded content of summaries related to:

  • Criminal bars to Temporary Protected Status (TPS)
  • Requirements around “Admissions”
  • Mandatory detention under INA §236(c)
  • Reason to Believe Drug Trafficker (RTB) charges under INA §212(a)(2)(C)
