If a court determines that someone obtained their US citizenship fraudulently, can they be deported years later?
Yes. A person can be stripped of their U.S. citizenship and deported years—even decades—after obtaining citizenship fraudulently. There is generally no time limit that prevents the government from pursuing denaturalization for fraud.
Here’s how it works:
The government must establish grounds for revoking citizenship. Under federal law, the government can seek to revoke naturalization if citizenship was illegally obtained or procured through concealment of a material fact or willful misrepresentation.
There is generally no statute of limitations for civil denaturalization based on fraud. The passage of 20, 30, or more years does not automatically protect someone whose citizenship was fraudulently obtained.
After citizenship is revoked, deportation may follow. The person becomes a noncitizen again and may be placed in removal proceedings. Whether they can actually be deported depends on their immigration history, eligibility for lawful status, and other legal circumstances.
The government cannot simply declare someone guilty of fraud without legal process. Denaturalization requires appropriate legal proceedings, and the government must establish the applicable legal grounds.
The principal statute is 8 U.S.C. § 1451, which authorizes revocation of naturalization that was illegally obtained or procured through material concealment or willful misrepresentation. You can read the law on the official government website: 8 U.S.C. § 1451 — Revocation of Naturalization.
