NTA
NTA (Notice to Appear): An NTA is a formal legal document issued by the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) that initiates removal (deportation) proceedings against an individual. It details the reasons why the government believes a non-citizen should be removed from the U.S. and serves as a summons for them to appear before an immigration judge in immigration court.

Does Unlawful Presence Continue to Accrue While Fighting an NTA?
Question details
Can I receive a Notice to Appear (NTA) for deportation even if I have legal immigration status or a pending application?
This question is particularly important because continued accrual of unlawful presence during removal proceedings can trigger the three-year or ten-year bars, severely limiting future immigration options.
General Rule: Yes, Unlawful Presence Continues

Community members and our lawyer colleagues have shared their stories. It appears:
1. The NTAs are getting resolved quickly, where you are still in the grace period and/or have a B-type petition pending. Motions to terminate are working.
2. The hearing dates are also being given in a few days or weeks.
3. The percentage of NTAs is relatively small.
