Nothing to impact your ROC.. you are already “immigrated”... but he could well pronounce something else I guess ! 🤬

I wouldn't worry.  He is cray-tweeting from his throne in the West Wing bathroom again.

We need to see the details...this could be as broad as it sounds or it could be like the bans on parts of Europe or China where there are considerable exceptions.

 

By "immigration", that technically covers all IVs and NIVs (and possibly COS/EOS/AOS). Possibly LPRs as well (like v1 of the travel ban), although I do not think he could even actually do so.

 

Although, inviting the "need to protect jobs" part blurs the purpose from safety to other reasons, of which his authority is much more limited.

Well it's not a complete ban but a temporary suspension...

 

But, yes, what now?

 

I was about submit I-129F this week  

 

Now they will probably say, anyone who applies from 4/21 onwards will just go into a holding box....

Does this mean he is also sending Melania back?

I think shes planning to join United or American as cabin crew after the lockdown. You can see her practicing below

Yeah, but if the idea is to protect American jobs, why not just stop issuing SSNs and green cards to foreigners now?

I’m so freaked out. I literally just got my NOA-1 about my adjustment today and I was delighted to have it 😔 I also really hate the thoughts of doing any international travel right now for obvious reasons.

I can see her being best at pointing to exit rows.

I had a glimmer of hope this morning when I spoke to the Embassy about an emergency appointment for my k1 interview... guess that’s out the window now. Just when I thought this nightmare couldn’t get any worse. 

I am so so sorry.

We have been in AP post interview in Beirut for 18 months.

One thing to keep in mind-Trump often makes grand statements which he later clarifies and limits. This may affect only new work visas etc. It will almost certainly not be the complete ban it sounds like now.

So what happens now 

 

When he signs to EO we will all know.

[waitinggame101 10]

My question is will this imply he is suspending phsyical arrivals? new visa/AOS/travel/work applications? pending applications? all applications?
