According to TRAC, the Department of Homeland Security filed just 741 deportation proceedings in February based on alleged criminal activity. This accounted for 2 per cent of all “Notices to Appear” (NTAs) issued during the month.
• 98 per cent of NTAs were linked to civil immigration violations such as entering without inspection or overstaying a visa
• 2 per cent were tied to alleged criminal activity
“The remaining 98 per cent of NTAs involved claimed violations of immigration rules such as entry without inspection or overstaying a visa to justify asking an Immigration Judge to enter a removal order,” TRAC data shows.
