Expedited Removal in the US: Who's at Risk?

Who's at Risk for Expedited Removal in the US? McBean Immigration Law, a firm recognized as "Best Lawyers in America" in 2024 and 2025, recently released a short video explaining the criteria for expedited removal. The video highlights that those who entered the United States without inspection, lack proper documentation, and cannot prove continuous residence for two years are particularly vulnerable. "Those who cannot prove that they have been here continuously for two years are the ones who they are targeting for expedited removal," states the video's presenter. The video also clarifies that this process applies to individuals who have been in the US for less than two years, while those present for longer periods have greater legal protections. The firm emphasizes that the information presented is for educational purposes and does not constitute legal advice. This video underscores the importance of navigating immigration procedures correctly and seeking legal counsel when necessary.
