You will know you are in removal proceedings when you are served with a document titled, “Notice to Appear”.

The “Notice to Appear” will list allegations/statements about you based on which you are being charged with violating an immigration law and therefore, the U.S. seeks to determine if you should be removed, and should also include information about a time and date to appear before the Immigration Court of the state in which you live.
