Question: Can Pres. Obama grant legal status by Exec. Order. (Nov.2014).
Answer:- Yes, if he is using his executive power to enforce the Immigration Law, and not change the law.
Question: What status can he grant to Illegal aliens:
Answer 1:- The status will be an Order of Supervision (OSUP), which entitles the alien to obtain work authorization.
Answer 2:- For aliens currently in deportation proceedings, or previously deported, they will need to also have an Order of Deferral of Removal issued by U.S ICE or the Immigration Judge.
Answer 2:- This status is not permanent resident status (green card), nor does it make an alien eligible to file for permanent resident status.
Question: What is meant by reopening a deportation or removal order?
Answer: When ICE believes you are unlawfully present in the United States, it starts a process now known as removal proceedings. They may be sometimes referred to as deportation proceedings. You will be served with a Notice To Appear (NTA) which is filed with the immigration court to start the process. The charges are outlined that believes makes you removable. Eventually, the immigration judge will determine whether you should be removed or allowed to stay. If the judge determines you should be removed or you do not attend your court date, a removal order will be issued against you. A motion to reopen a deportation or removal order seeks to stop your removal and bring the case back before the judge.
