Finally, an USCIS opinion about our endless question

The new question now is if whether the io's are going to act more accordingly to the USCIS press release or not.

This is what I think is gonna happen... Time is gonna pass by, and the immigration communicate is gonna be left behind. Trips to COP will be resumed, we'll hear new experiences, and it's gonna start all over.

What I think this new memo did not clarify (like we all wanted) is whether or not PRs, who acquired it through asylum, can use NP to travel to COP OR to any other country. My personal decision...

I am going to continue to use the RTD until citizenship even though I do have a valid passport from my COP... This is a personal choice. Again, as some posters have already said, this memo basically clarified nothing, except to reiterate what has already been said on this board and in the law books. I am personally disappointed by this memo as it accomplishes absolutely nothing.
 
traveling to COP

hi all,

What a great forum! You guys/girls are awesome!

In my humble opinion, for some reason, USCIS just posted a summary of existing rules and regulations (hence the name fact sheet). Maybe this is wishful thinking but I doubt USCIS will give hard time to permanent residents.. My lawyer says that in theory they could revoke a GC of a former asylee, but in reality this process is quite tedious. A short-term travel to COP is probably even a lesser issue for former derivative asylees who weren't directly persecuted.

I look forward to your comments.

Vicent.vega: Welcome to the forum. My thoughts are that a Green cards can be revoke to anyone. It doesn't matter how you get it, thru Asylum, Lottery, Marrige, or family based.

You should always be aware of this and act accordingly. Traveling back to COP is a risk, but if you are fearless and willing to take the risk, do it.

I've always thought that if I have a strong reason to go back to my COP I will do it no matter what, but I also think is very irresponsible to tell people is OK to do it.
Traveling back is up to each person at their own risk.

It's my opinion.
Suerte

After getting GC whenever you are encounter an I/O, he/she is basically looking for any stupid thing that you have done AFTER getting the GC (like robbing, killing, raping etc..) and NOT before GC. Those GC holders who come back from COP have these fears because they themselves are guilty at heart of going back.

This is my NOT so humble opinion...
;)
 
Any recent experiences????????

Any recent experiences worth sharing reagarding GC holders who came back from short visit to COP using either NP or RTD for the holidays?


Thanks

PS> How many years does it take to get your citizenship after GC was obtained based on Asylum>???

Do not worry. You won't be deported. The only time that this may come up for questioning is during your citizenship interview and even then it is examined on a case-by-case basis. You cannot be deported simply because you use your COP passport. However, you should always be vigilant about using your passport. One immigration officer told me: use your passport or RTD but better to have both. But who knows...
 
After hearing some many bulls from different IOs, I hope they all add one more sentence to their comment: this only represents my own point of view, but not our agency :D
