Undocumented immigrants in the United States must avoid or take care of certain actions that can put them at risk of possible deportation.
As an undocumented immigrant, it is important to know what types of actions may harm your presence in the United States, or affect a possible adjustment of immigration status in the future.
For example, it is important to never present false identity documents, as it is a crime that can lead to problems and penalties. In this sense, it is always necessary to carry the original documents and also avoid using other people's documents.
Other types of conduct or actions are related to the possession of drugs or illicit substances, as well as the possession of weapons. Both are sufficient situations for a possible deportation, especially the possession of weapons, which is considered a major felony, which is also punishable by imprisonment.
It is also necessary to comply with the traffic regulations of each state and avoid exceeding the speed limits established in each situation or driving under the influence of substances or alcohol.
On the other hand, far from situations that are related to authorities, undocumented immigrants must beware of immigration fraud involving other people. It is advised that in no case documents are provided to third parties to carry out individual or personal procedures.
Finally, it is advisable to seek advice from an immigration attorney before filling out forms from the Citizenship and Immigration Service (USCIS). This will make it easier to determine what types of forms your case needs and how to fill them out.
