Aha -- the "change of mind at baggage claim."

"Call a lawyer," perhaps.

VDH calmly barbecues Leftists. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Insurrection Chic Is Jeff Davis the Model? Who is the real, or fictional, inspiration for the new insurrectionary wing of the Democrat Party? The fictitious Hollywood insurrectionist, Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, "James Mattoon Scott" (Burt Lancaster), who in the 1964 film Seven Days in May attempted to overthrow the presidency? Or perhaps Jefferson Davis? He ultimately ordered the attack by South Carolina state forces against the federal garrison at Fort Sumter, which ignited the Civil War. Or is the better inspiration the "Stand in the Schoolhouse Door?" Alabama Governor George Wallace likewise vowed to use his state's law enforcement to nullify a federal law. Yet how odd that the left, which had lectured us so often about a January 6th "insurrection"—a charge that not even the Javert-like special counsel Jack Smith ever lodged against Donald Trump—now talks frequently about the proud nullification of our nation's federal laws.

Regarding visa overstays, I wonder what the precise letter of the law is regarding deportability. Makes one wonder whether ICE is under pressure (or order) for numbers, because people visiting USCIS offices are metaphorically low-hanging fruit and probably not who ordinary Americans would prioritize for deportation.

Hmm. The article says "During the appointment..." and "they were getting everything signed off." Was she getting signed in? Was she in her actual interview? Was she getting signed out after the interview? If the first, perhaps she's still technically detainable and deportable; if either of the latter, it would seem that she'd be under the USCIS umbrella.

A post has been removed because it has its own thread in the Current Events forum.

Everyone starts new. Welcome to VJ, and glad that you found the thread.

Sample one and report back. This is absolutely an awful story.

I don't think that this is much more unusual that what's routinely been happening for years. Maybe it's getting more press now because "if it bleeds, it leads" and the media are trying to needle the current administration.

Send it where they say to. If it's someplace different, it's on them to match the RFE to your file.

Thread is moved from the "AOS from WS&T Visas" forum to the Current Events forum, where political topics are discussed.

Congratulations!

This sucks and would be no surprise to anyone who's seen any John Kass column on the topic.
