Transcript of the above video:

As the title of this video suggests, we are discussing what is called expedited removal, sometimes referred to as expedited deportation. As I have discussed in other videos, this came about, it was created in the '90s under what was called IIRAIRA, it was basically an Immigration Reform Act and it resulted in the creation of this notion of expedited removal. What does that mean? Well it means in the past, prior to that Act basically Immigration Officers had sort of two choices, excuse me, US Customs and Border Protection Officers basically could deny someone entry and send them away, or they could admit them.

They created this other procedure called expedited deportation or expedited removal. By putting someone through that proceeding it is sort of like a truncated deportation if you will; it's kind of like a pocket deportation if you will. They have pocket authority to impose expedited removal on somebody if they deem them to be entering the United States illegally. The result of this is a five-year ban. I have done videos contemporaneously with this one where we have compared like Thailand's system of banning folks for 5 years who are arrested in Thailand for overstay, comparing that to expedited removal in the United States because the Blacklist time if you will, the timing of the ban is 5 years. Is there a remedy for this? Yes there is and depending on the circumstances an I-212 and/or well or I should say and possibly an I-601 waiver may be necessary in order to overcome the prior processing of expedited removal and basically allow someone to come back into the United States notwithstanding the fact that that five years has not run its course. 

So the thing to take away from this video is one, people can be placed in expedited removal proceedings; two, there is a remedy for it and three, the remedy may be, depending on circumstances and the facts in the case an I-212 and/or an I-601 waiver.
