Motion to Recalendar vs. Motion to Reopen. "Real Cases"

Send us Fan MailIn today’s episode, we break down two of the most important and misunderstood motions in immigration court: the Motion to Recalendar and the Motion to Reopen. These motions can determine whether your case moves forward, gets revived, or stays closed—and they affect thousands of immigrants every year.We explain when a Motion to Recalendar is used, how administrative closure works, and who can request it. Then we dive deep into the Motion to Reopen, including the critical 90-day rule, the 180-day exceptional circumstances rule, and the no-notice motions that can be filed at any time. You’ll hear real client examples, including cases where we reopened deportation orders filed years later—due to notario fraud, lack of notice, or new eligibility such as marriage to a U.S. citizen.This episode is essential for anyone in immigration court or supporting a family member navigating removal proceedings.
