Exclusion and removal (deportation)
proceedings, along with asylum hearings, are major staples for the United
States Immigration Judge and the EOIR of the Department of Justice.
Generally speaking, all aliens to the United
States must satisfy State Department consular officers abroad and the
Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Bureau of Customs and Border Protection
inspectors upon entry to the U.S. that they (the aliens) are not ineligible for
visas or admission under the so-called “grounds of inadmissibility” of the
Immigration and Nationality Act (INA).
Officially, the nine (9) INA “grounds of
inadmissibility” are:
(1) health-related
grounds
(2) criminal
history;
(3) national
security and terrorist concerns;
(4) public
charge (e.g., indigence);
(5) seeking
to work without proper labor certification;
(6) illegal
entrants and immigration law violations;
(7) lacking
proper documents;
(8) ineligible
for citizenship; and, of course,
(9) aliens
previously removed.
