The court must advise that a plea may have immigration consequences and specifically state: "If you are not a citizen of the United States, pleading guilty or no contest to a crime may affect your immigration status. Admitting guilt may result in deportation even if the charge is later dismissed. Your plea or admission of guilt could result in your deportation or removal, could prevent you from ever being able to get legal status in the United States, or could prevent you from becoming a United States citizen."
(2)Advisement Before Admission of Facts. A court also must give the advisement in (b)(1) before any admission of facts sufficient to warrant a finding of guilt, or before any submission on the record.(3)Disclosure of Immigration Status.
