Board of Immigration Appeals
The Board of Immigration Appeals, also known as BIA, falls within the Executive Office for Immigration Review, which itself is part of the Federal Department of Justice. The Board of Immigration Appeals is an administrative body which, except under rare circumstances, deals with courtroom proceedings. Its purpose is to interpret and apply laws dealing with immigration.
The BIA has the responsibility to hear appeals from some decisions that have been made by immigration judges and the Department of Homeland Security officials. These cases involve the United States Government and an alien, citizen or business. Decisions made by the BIA can be overruled by the Attorney General or reviewed by a federal court. Generally, BIA decisions will be reviewed in this manner. The federal court can modify or overrule the BIA decision.
