Frequently Asked Questions — Tremont Immigration
What is the immigration situation in Tremont, Bronx?
Tremont is a densely populated Bronx neighborhood centered along the Grand Concourse corridor and Webster Avenue. It is overwhelmingly Dominican and Puerto Rican, with growing Mexican and other Latin American populations. Tremont has high rates of long-term undocumented residents who have been in the U.S. for 10-20 years, raising U.S. citizen children, and working without authorization. The neighborhood is also home to many DACA recipients who grew up in the Bronx and have never lived in any other country. Immigration issues in Tremont tend to center on family-based immigration, DACA, and cancellation of removal for long-term residents.
Which immigration court handles deportation cases for Tremont residents?
Tremont residents in removal proceedings appear at the New York Immigration Court at 26 Federal Plaza in Lower Manhattan. The Bronx does not have its own immigration court. All Bronx removal cases are heard at 26 Federal Plaza, where our attorneys appear regularly. Detained cases may be heard at Varick Street (201 Varick St) depending on where ICE holds the individual.
I have been in the Bronx since 2005 and have three U.S. citizen children. Can I apply for cancellation of removal?
Cancellation of removal for non-LPRs requires 10 years of continuous physical presence in the U.S., good moral character throughout that period, and a showing that your U.S. citizen or LPR spouse, parent, or child would suffer exceptional and extremely unusual hardship if you were deported. Since you've been here since 2005, you likely meet the 10-year presence requirement — but this defense is only available in removal proceedings and cannot be applied for proactively. The hardship standard requires extensive documentation of your children's educational, medical, psychological, and economic circumstances. We build detailed hardship packages for Bronx families seeking cancellation.
My DACA expired during the COVID period and I did not renew. Can I still renew?
Yes, DACA is currently accepting renewal applications for those who had DACA previously. Even if your DACA lapsed, you can file a renewal application as long as USCIS is accepting renewals. You do not need to have continuous DACA coverage — lapsed DACA holders can renew. However, DACA renewals are subject to ongoing federal court litigation and program status changes. File as promptly as possible to restore your work authorization. We handle DACA renewals for Bronx recipients and track program developments closely.
