You are especially at risk for deportation if you committed a “crime of moral turpitude” or an “aggravated felony.” There are also other crimes that do not fall into these categories that can also lead to an immigrant facing removal proceedings. In addition, there are specific crimes that can cause an immigrant to get deported if they leave the country, return to the U.S., and may then face removal proceedings when they are seeking readmission to this country. If you have been convicted of two or more crimes of moral turpitude within 5 years of being admitted to the country, you may also be facing deportation.
