What Is an Immigration Motion?
An immigration motion is a formal request submitted to an immigration judge or the Board of Immigration Appeals (BIA) asking the court to take a specific action on a case. Common motions include Motions to Reopen, Motions to Reconsider, and Motions to Change Venue. These are governed by the Immigration and Nationality Act (8 U.S.C.) and the Code of Federal Regulations (Title 8 CFR).
