What is an Administrative Removal Order?

An Administrative Removal Order (ARO) is a type of deportation order issued by the United States government to individuals who are in the country illegally. The ARO is a form of summary removal, which allows government officials to quickly deport someone without a formal immigration hearing. This process is often used when an individual’s presence in the country is deemed a threat to public safety. In Texas, an individual who is subject to an ARO must immediately leave the United States. This type of removal is considered final and cannot be appealed. It is considered superior to other forms of removal orders and is often used when an immigrant poses a significant public safety risk. In some cases, an ARO can be used to remove someone who has committed visa fraud or other immigration violations. An ARO can also be imposed on individuals who are inadmissible to the United States, meaning they do not meet the requirements for being allowed to enter the country. In these cases, an ARO allows for quicker removal, without the need for a full immigration hearing. Once an ARO is issued, the individual subject to deportation must leave the United States as quickly as possible. Additionally, they can be barred from returning to the country for a set number of years, depending on the individual’s immigration status. AROs can also be used to deport individuals who have overstayed their visas, or who have committed other crimes.

Una Orden de Remoción Administrativa es un documento emitido por el Servicio de Ciudadanía e Inmigración de los Estados Unidos (USCIS) para iniciar el proceso de deportación de una persona que está en Estados Unidos de forma ilegal. Esta orden de remoción informa a la persona afectada de que la administración tiene intención de deportarla del país. Esta orden puede ser emitida sin que haya habido una audiencia o una decisión judicial previa. En el estado de Texas, una Orden de Remoción Administrativa es emitida cuando USCIS tiene evidencia de que el extranjero presente en el país no está autorizado por ley para estar aquí. Esto, por lo general, es el resultado de que el extranjero haya entrado ilegalmente al país o porque ha dejado de cumplir con las condiciones de su estatus migratorio. La Orden de Remoción Administrativa es la etapa inicial del proceso de deportación y normalmente no le da al afectado la oportunidad de defenderse legalmente si no desean ser deportados. En algunos casos, el afectado podrá apelar la Orden de Remoción Administrativa ante un tribunal de inmigración. Esta apelación puede ser la última oportunidad para evitar la deportación del extranjero.
