Kelly promises to speed up deportationd - Page 2

This administration wanted to focus on criminals. To hear the new administration DHS and AG picks, it's my opinion that they'll deport anybody they can. But I am a pessimist usually. Haha

totally understandable... lol but just think of the trump administration as a dumber bush 2.0 administration. nobody came in knocking on our door from 2001-2009.

But they have DACA now with our info and addresses when they didn't have that in the Bush administration.

I understand why everyone is being so pessimistic, but they have said numerous times that they are not going to deport us. At the very worst they are putting us at the bottom of the list. I do worry about others tho.

The thing to watch will be if there is any change to the expedited removals category. Right now it includes recent arrivals, which I think is who he was referring to when he said

Unless DACA recipients are placed into an expedited removal category I think we might be fine. Right now immigration court is swamped with 500,000 cases which take several years each. If you add 750,000 DACA cases on top of that then we're looking at several years before we even get a MASTERS hearing and several more until we get a final decision. Easily enough time to outlast a Trump presidency, assuming he is a one term president and the Dems get their act together in time. And remember, the whole time you have a case pending with immigration court, you are entitled to a work permit.

Can you explain more on this process and approximate timetable from being taken by authorities to final decision, and what steps we can take to drag out the process? Or maybe create a sticky thread for this topic. Thanks.

Nobody knew who or more importantly, WHERE we were back then.

Well if IRS was sharing info they could have easily found us using our ITIN numbers

Trump and other Republicans have continually said they will not deport 11 million immigrants. They have continually said only undocumented immigrants with criminal records. For now, I think the questions and responses were poorly worded. Worry when they actually start deporting people with criminal records. Stop acting like it's fucking Armageddon. Dudes need to fucking chill.

Preach!!

Worst case scenario. If Trump cancels DACA and rescinds our work permits.. You can move away from where you currently are, then work in places where they don't have e-verify, that alone will give you 2 extra years,where hopefully you can find someone to marry !! don't wait before it is too late!
