By: Serving Immigrants, Inc. This stricter standard became more widespread after Congress passed the Illegal Immigration Reform and Immigrant Responsibility Act (IIRIRA) in 1996. IIRIRA effectively replaced Suspension of Deportation with "Cancellation of Removal for Certain Nonpermanent Residents" (non-LPR cancellation) One important difference, however, was the application of this heightened hardship standard to all Cancellation of Removal applicants, not just those who have committed certain crimes. In addition to demanding a higher showing of hardship, non-LPR Cancellation also narrowed whose hardship matters.

The Immigration Court weighs the "totality of the evidence" in attempts at determining whether such standard exists and has been met in each individual case.
