This refers specifically to the expulsion of foreigners that are often living illegally or not meeting citizenship or residency requirements as posed to them by the government of that country. Deportation can also happen when an individual or group is moved and forced to resettle in a different part of their country. Deportation can happen at any time and in any country, though it is usually associated with the committing of serious crimes or some unlawful act. Even if an individual is a long time resident, they are not free from the possibility of deportation. We are hearing a lot lately about possible deportation amongst the growing number of illegal immigrants living within the United States.
