Whats the ground for removal?
In fact, the first time I talked to one of the immigration attorneys, she were unsure whether I should just withdraw the application. But after she consulted a “more experienced” attorney, the conclusion was I should keep the application and wait till my case is formally closed (it’s dismissed now).
My criminal attorney and the immigration attorneys also assured me this will not cause a deportation.
What I found confusing is that there seem to be very drastic differences in people’s views on this when I search online. Maybe there isn’t a clear cut law or policy on this so the decision can be very random and up to immigration officers? At this point, all I can do is speculation, right? Asking on the forum and hoping to get information from people who went through similar experience or have the expertise would not guarantee me a pass but would certainly be helpful to get me prepared.
