Syria is banned longer I'm afraid...until Trump sees "significant changes"....whatever that means :/

I thought it was only the refugee status people from Syria that had longer "indefinite" bans. Is Syria OVERALL (even for K-1 in the above posters case) included in the "indefinite" period?

Ah, you're right. I was mistaken on that. So basically she needs to wait the 90 days before being able to come here. Still awful though.

Exactly...we can't do anything. He's still going to be president no matter what anyone does  half of  the country is even happy about this. The most of the comments made on some of the articles are utterly disgusting.

Via Reuters an hour ago: a DHS spokesperson is quoted saying the bar applies to green card holders from the seven named countries:

I would love to get a legal perspective on this. Or a legislative one for that matter. I think we can be sure the legal onslaught on this will start on Monday. It just seems completely ludicrous that a legal permanent resident is not allowed to return home to their family. Say you go abroad for work, family emergency, vacation - whatever. Presidential decree happens one day and all of a sudden your legal status is revoked? Your kids, husband, parents, jobs, all your worldy possessions are possibly in the US but you cannot go there? What of those cases who have nowhere else to go?

 

I dare say that the consulates abroad were not prepared for this to happen either.

 

This could happen to all of us legal immigrants - scary! So much for the Trump administration only targeting illegal immigration.

I'm waiting for either the New York or LA times to write a story on that to see if it's actually true (Or even the USCIS).The article posted doesn't seem all that credible in my opinion. There's only 2 things written about green card holders being denied entry and neither one seem legit. Thankfully.

It has been reported in the German news today - that GC holders were barred from boarding planes in Egypt. The article didn't specify which of the 7 nations included in the order those affected held passports from. 

 

You are right, however. We'll see how this pans out.

Hearing that the Austrians had to send back about 300 Jewish and Christian Iranians due to enter the US.

Utterly disgusting. I have no words to describe this entire ordeal. I just hope the the amount of public outcry will pressure Congress into doing something. It will have no effect on Trump, if anything it fuels his fire. And there's soon to be a list of my countries who will possibly be banned I believe.

Stupid headline right there, it's all about those 7 countries, not ALL non-US citizens.

Sweden too, I bet. We're producing a lot of terrorists over there these days, so that would be another addition to the ban list.

He'll have to take on the EU over that I would hope. I doubt they'll just sit there and let one of their countries be banned from US entry.
