The Alienage Safe Haven refers to persons whose citizenship status or nationality renders them immune from the grounds of deportation.  See § § 4.4-4.7, supra.  This includes the three safe havens which are related to alienage or nationality: 

 

            (a)  United States Citizens cannot be deported, unless they acquired citizenship by naturalization, and the grant is revoked.  See § 4.5, supra.

 

            (b)  Nationals of the United States cannot be deported.  See § 4.6, supra.

 

            (c)  Certain American Indians born in Canada cannot be deported.  See § 4.7, supra.

 

These are the gold standard of safe havens: if the client falls within any of these groups, s/he absolutely cannot be deported under any ground of deportation whatsoever.
