• the consequences of in absentia removal orders;
• how individuals can seek rescission of in absentia removal orders based on exceptional circumstances and/or lack of notice;
• options for individuals who received an in absentia removal order after:
o not receiving oral notice of the consequences of failing to appear, or
o arriving late to their court dates; and
• how to obtain federal court review of an in absentia removal order.
