Immigration Appeal Dismissal Consequences

Summary

If an immigration judge orders removal and the BIA dismisses an appeal, the individual may face deportation. Options include filing a motion to reopen or reconsider with the BIA if new evidence or legal errors exist, appealing to the U.S. Court of Appeals, or applying for a stay of removal. The timing of removal can vary, often taking several months to a few years, depending on case complexity and system backlog. Deportation dates may not be scheduled immediately due to pending motions, appeals, or stay requests.
