I called my CBP friend currently working in Tampa. She said the only way they confiscate a passport is when you are taken into US custody, and then only until they can release you to to the authorities from your embassy. Just like a US passport is the property of the US government, your Passport ( Unless you had a US passport) is the property of your government agency that issues it.  She said there is no way they would parole you into the country without any form of identification, that right there would get someone fired, along with taking something they legally have no right to do unless you are accused of a crime and in custody, and if that was the case, they would have notified your embassy that they have arrested a citizen of their country for x charges, and it would go from there. She said at the most, they could remove, or more than likely VOID the visa in the passport, and then admit you with a parole hearing date, but she is astounded that you are in the US, and CBP took your passport. So, just to be clear, you are inside the United States, with no form of identification? If so, I would get to your nearest embassy and file charges against the US. Bet that packet would show up really soon, like instantly. Your embassy should have a hotline to call, and they could probably figure this whole thing out quickly, or at the minimum get you a travel document to return to your home country.

When I visited the cbp the second day, I saw they had a pile of passports in their office. I am guilty of missing that packet. But I don’t know where to find it since it was never given to me. I also don’t know who to ask for it. All my original documents are very conveniently in the uk. If i had not had any family, i would be homeless by now for not being able to check in.

You need to contact v the Consulate where your visa interview took place.

As many of us have told you, you need to reach out to the diplomatic mission where you interview took place, seems to be London for you.  Have you reached out to them?  

 

Also, I do not doubt your story about your passport being held at the airport; I have seen it before.  Plenty of things that are not supposed to happen, do in fact happen.

Why did you leave all your documentation in the UK?

 

And sorry, but nothing adds up about your story.   Particularly the idea that you are in the US on a visa afforded only to high-achieving geniuses.
