Stricter Immigration Policies Under Trump: When Can Green Card Holders Face Deportation?



With Donald Trump assuming his second term as U.S. President, his administration has implemented stricter immigration policies. The Trump administration has already begun deporting individuals residing in the country illegally. However, deportation risks are not limited to undocumented immigrants—even legal permanent residents (Green Card holders) can face removal under certain circumstances.  


Vasu Pulara, a New York-based immigration attorney, reassured that those complying with U.S. immigration laws need not fear deportation. However, he advised Green Card holders traveling abroad to exercise caution and highlighted key considerations before leaving the U.S.  


Crimes That Can Lead to Deportation

Pulara warned that Green Card holders involved in serious crimes—such as theft, fraud, domestic violence, drug trafficking, weapons offenses, homicide, or sexual assault—could face deportation. Additionally, individuals convicted of multiple criminal offenses resulting in five or more years of imprisonment may be barred from re-entering the U.S.  


Long Stays Abroad Risk Losing Residency

Staying outside the U.S. for more than six consecutive months may raise suspicions of abandoning permanent residency. If a Green Card holder remains abroad for over a year without a re-entry permit, they could lose their residency rights. Pulara cautioned, "If a citizenship or Green Card renewal application is pending, international travel could lead to delays, complications, or even denial of re-entry."


Tax Compliance is Mandatory

Green Card holders must file U.S. tax returns and report global income. Failure to pay taxes or falsely claiming non-resident status could trigger deportation proceedings.  


Other Grounds for Deportation

Misusing public benefits, providing false information on immigration applications, or falsely claiming U.S. citizenship can also lead to removal. Even past immigration violations—such as overstaying a visa or submitting fraudulent documents—can resurface and cause re-entry issues. Individuals from countries under heightened U.S. scrutiny may face additional scrutiny.  


Travel Risks for Conditional Green Card Holders

Pulara warned that those with expired conditional Green Cards relying solely on an I-551 stamp may encounter re-entry challenges. If a removal case is pending or a Notice to Appear (NTA) has been issued, border officials may deny entry or detain the individual. "Even with a valid I-551 stamp, if the conditional Green Card application is denied, the person may no longer qualify as a lawful permanent resident," he explained.  


Final Advice

Pulara urged immigrants facing legal uncertainties to consult an attorney before traveling. He recommended carrying Green Cards or re-entry permits, limiting prolonged stays abroad, and maintaining honesty with border officials to avoid complications.  


"Staying informed and compliant is the best way to protect your residency rights," Pulara emphasized.
