What must individuals typically demonstrate to qualify for suspension of deportation?

To qualify for the suspension of deportation, individuals are typically required to demonstrate continuous residence in the United States and good moral character. Continuous residence refers to having lived in the U.S. for a specific period, which is important in showing a settled and established life in the country. Good moral character is assessed based on the individual’s behavior and adherence to societal norms, indicating that they are not a threat to public safety and have integrated well into the community. This combination of residence and moral character serves as a basis for allowing individuals to remain in the U.S. despite their undocumented status or previous violations of immigration law. The other options do not encapsulate the specific legal criteria that directly apply to the suspension of deportation.
