Voluntary Departure Requirements

by

Voluntary departure is a form of relief for an alien who is subject to removal. While voluntary departure carries the advantage of avoiding detention and allowing an alien, if eligible, to apply for admission at some future time, a violation of a voluntary departure order will result in stiff penalties. Before requesting voluntary departure an alien in deportation proceedings should consult with an experienced immigration attorney.
