As far as I know, yes, you are right. If you have a proof of cencelation of removal, you are correct.
Any doubt or another question, let me know it please.

Re: Immigration
You'd really would have to include more facts. If you were granted cancellation of removal by the Immigration Judge (IJ) but the government appealed the case, the BIA could have reversed the IJ and either remanded the case back to the IJ for fact-findings, or held that you did not qualify for cancellation at all and with no other relief entered an order of removal against you. Regarding your reference to the 5th, 9th Circuits, and Supreme Court cases holding otherwise, that is an extremely general statement that may not be applicable to your specific case. As stated, you'd have to include way more facts.
