Appx J - Filing Motions

Where to File a Motion

This Appendix provides guidance on where to file documents in removal proceedings. Parties should still review the pertinent regulations and must be careful to observe the rules regarding filings, especially the time and number limits on motions. See Part II, 5.3 (Motion Limits); Part III, 5.3 (Motion Limits). In cases in which the immigration court has jurisdiction, documents must be filed with the immigration court having administrative control over the Record of Proceedings. See Part II, 3.1 (Delivery and Receipt); Part III, 3.1 (Delivery and Receipt). Please also refer to Part 1, Chapter 4 (ECAS) for information about electronic filing options.
