The term "removal" is used in a generic sense and includes orders of
deportation, exclusion, etc. A removal order bars the individual from
returning to the U.S. for a period of years, or in some cases permanently.
After a removal order has been issued and, after any appeals, has become final,
Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) is responsible for enforcing the order and deporting
the individual.
