Reasons for Deportation

There are numerous reasons for why a person may be deported back to their country of origin from the United States. The first and most important thing to understand is that a legal United States citizen cannot simply be deported without a really good reason. Someone who becomes a citizen because of fraud, or someone who is fraudulently residing in the country is much more likely to be deported if found out, however. Here are some possible reasons for deportation.

Reasons for Refusal to Become a Citizen

There are a number of different reasons for why an international citizen may be barred from the ability to immigrate into the United States. Here are a few of the more prevalent reasons for why someone looking to move to the United States may be refused. These people would be branded as inadmissible aliens, which would keep them from entering into the country as asylum seekers, immigrants or refugees.

• Carriers of communicable diseases, including but not limited to AIDS, Tuberculosis and Typhoid Fever along with other transmittable serious ailments. Because carrying around a deadly or transmittable disease can create a severe health crisis, these individuals cannot legally enter into the United States.
  
• Carriers of criminal records. Anyone who has committed an aggravated felony is generally denied admission into the United States. Aggravated felonies include a number of different serious crimes, including rape, murder and drug trafficking just to name a few. Treason, espionage and other terrorist activities are also regarded as aggravated felonies.
• Individuals with some physical and mental disorders. There are certain conditions that bar aliens from immigrating into the United States, unless they can find a legitimate way to prove that they have cured or are controlling the condition in question.
• Threat of terrorism or espionage. Anyone who is deemed likely to engage in any subversive activity against the United States will be turned away when trying to enter into the United States.

Reasons for Deportation

Despite there being a number of reasons for keeping certain aliens from immigrating to the country, there are still ways to travel in and attempt to become a citizen of the United States. The following are reasons for deportation of people living in the country but who do not belong.

• People who have fraudulently become citizens of the country, such as by marrying a citizen of the United States for the purpose of becoming a legal citizen. If the marriage is legitimate, no fraud has taken place, but if the marriage was a rouse, deportation may be the solution.


• People who have come to the country legally on a temporary basis and then have refused to depart when the reason was no longer valid. For example, people can travel to the United States on a work or education visa, but once the visa expires, if they do not return home or renew the visa, they are eligible for deportation.


• People who sneak into the country illegally. Traveling into the country by crossing a border or flying in, and then masquerading as a legal citizen is cause for deportation. While it is legitimate to visit the United States, people who reside here on a long term basis without any legal right can be deported.
