Episode notes
Visa Revocation Process
- There are two steps in the visa revocation process: cancellation and deportation proceedings.
- A visa cancellation email doesn't require immediate departure, but it makes one subject to deportation.
Green Card Revocation
- Revoking green cards is more complex than visas, requiring specific grounds for removal.
- The government might argue a green card holder's presence is detrimental to foreign policy, bypassing typical court procedures.
Detainee Information Access
- Detained individuals receive a notice explaining the grounds for detainment, but access to this information is often limited.
- The lack of transparency is due to restricted communication access within detention facilities.
