  1. So, when my wife got her passport, the post office conveniently lost her naturalization certificate. When she got a new one issued, the new one mysteriously disappeared in the mail too, even though it was sent certified mail. It seems like there's some organized thing going on in the #Bronx where people are stealing naturalization certificates being sent through #USPS.

  2. The #Trump admin launched a plan Tuesday to channel hundreds of thousands of #asylum seekers directly into #deportation proceedings, a change that some attys said could lead to people being removed from the #US WITHOUT A HEARING.
    Trump ofcls introduced a rule designed to reduce the 1.4M asylum cases pending in US Citizenship & Immigration Services ( #USCIS ), the #DHS agency that processes #immigration applications, by nearly ⅓. The rule took effect immediately, before the public could weigh in.

  3. Notes from a former U.S. immigration officer writing about his thoughts on the immigration process and the severe changes made to ‘legal’ immigration

    “Finally, what does all of this mean for those of you trying to “come the right way” and those of us whose job is to help you do that? Delay, confusion, and inconsistency. This needs to be said in absolute, crystal-clear terms: this administration wants as little legal immigration as possible. They know they cannot completely stop immigration, so they instead will focus on making it as expensive, slow, and miserable for people as they can. I promise you that what gets reported in the news, be it a new policy or requirement, is just a small sampling of the ways this administration is telling the agency to make things more difficult and/or slower.”

  4. “Over 6 months later, many of those individuals remain without work, without legal status, & without any meaningful ability to plan for their futures,” Judge McConnell wrote.

    He wrote that the various holds violated the #immigration laws governing the responsibilities of #USCIS, & that the agency had routinely applied the #law unequally under the policies.

  5. The policies, enacted by #US #Citizenship & #Immigration Services [#USCIS], included a global hold on #asylum applications filed with the agency. It also paused decisions on immigration applications filed by people from the 39 countries subject to #Trump’s #TravelBan, halting their ability to obtain #GreenCards, US citizenship & other benefits.

    Dear Sen/ Rep -

    I object to the new rules USCIS has applied to green card applicants and I want you to fix this.

    For 60 years, people could apply for green cards at a US consulate abroad, or while already in the US.

    With the new USCIS policy, green card applicants already in the US will be required to leave while their cases are processed, even if they are in the country legally and regardless of whether they have spouses or children with citizenship.

    This will affect families nationwide by forcing green card applicants to leave jobs, homes, and relationships for an unknown amount of time. USCIS is struggling with a backlog of visa and green card cases, and admits it does not know how currently pending green card cases will be affected.

    This new policy will force survivors of trafficking, and abused and neglected children, to return to the dangerous countries they fled in order to process their applications for green cards.

    Please draft legislation that at a minimum allows people already in process for their green card to stay in the US while their green card is processed. Then use every appearance in committee, on the floor, and with news and social media to highlight the ways in which the policies of the Ballroom Republicans running this current Federal Administration are harming families.

  9. 🎉 In a thrilling plot twist, #USCIS has decided to only grant adjustment of status in "extraordinary" circumstances, because regular circumstances are just too mainstream. 🧐 Apparently, you now need to prove you're an alien with superpowers just to get a green card. 🚀👌
