My family(me, my wife and my 6 y.o daughter) arrived one and a half years ago from Russia (due to fear of political persecution). We went through an official port (by making an appointment with an officer through the CBP One app). We were granted a one-year humanitarian parole. Two months before the parole expired, we finally submitted our case to immigration court (through our lawyer, of course). The court is scheduled for October 2026. Currently, our status is “asylum pending” (which is not a legal status but allows for legal stay) while the case is being considered.

Will people like us also be deported or placed in detention?

I am a U.S. born citizen and had recently found out that one of my parents is an Undocumented Immigrant. My other parent is a Legal Migrant.

If Trump gets rid of Birthright Citizenship would I lose my citizenship even though was born here? Will my siblings who have children who were also born here in the U.S. lose their citizenship as well?

The Undocumented parent of mine hasn't been in my life for a long long time and I would have no way of contacting them.

My siblings and I are all adults and have built up our lives and have children and families of our own, and only speak English. All we know is America. This is Truly Earth shattering and I hope the best for myself and all others in similar situations.

The Facts

• A group of approximately 2K migrants departed from Mexico's southern border Sunday, aiming to reach the US.[1]
• This comes weeks before the Nov. 5 US presidential election, which has featured immigration as a contentious issue. Some migrants cited a lack of jobs in Mexico's south and a delay in asylum appointments in the US as inspiration for this latest trek.[1]
• Pres. Joe Biden's administration recently announced an executive order extending the number of days it takes for the asylum process to reopen, which tightened regulations from a previous executive order that began to reduce illegal border crossings in June.[2]
• The caravan reportedly includes people from Venezuela, Colombia, Ecuador, Peru, Central America, Haiti, Argentina, Panama, Costa Rica, Afghanistan, and Nepal, with many allegedly citing fears of a potential Donald Trump election win as the reason for making the trip now.[3]
• A spokesperson for US Customs and Border Protection said they're aware of the reported caravan and will "continue to monitor developments" with other agencies. The person also said these caravans "generally travel very slowly" and usually "splinter" before reaching the US.[3]
• This follows a separate wave of caravans — totaling about 4K people — that began traveling to the US from the beginning of the month through two weekends ago.[4]

I was deported from America 5 years ago, my ban is 10 years. I am now an Irish citizen, can I travel to America?

I am a 19 year old immigrant living in New York,my boyfriend is 23 and an American citizen. Its is possible for us to get married and file for my green card? Or do i have to to wait until I’m 21?

Just giving illegal immigrants legal status or a pathway to citizenship doesn't solve the issue and mass deportations will be expensive and met with huge resistance while not really solving it either, so something else needs to be done.

The biggest issues to reform are how it will affect lower class employment and wages, welfare programs, and elections so any reform that ignores those concerns is actually trying make those issues worse. The way I see as a possible way forward is a comprehensive reform that has a few major points

1. a significant tax(10-25%) on the employer of wages paid under a certain threshold per hour like 3x min wage or a set amount like 30$/hour to non-citizens. This means employers of low wage jobs save money hiring citizens protecting citizen jobs and preventing an increase in burdens on welfare programs.

2. a significant tax (10-25%) on the wages earned by those that come/came here illegally paid by the illegal while they non-citizens. This along with a multi-year delay to starting the citizenship process says to those waiting to come legally that breaking our laws to come here will receive a punishment they should wait to come legally.

3. making sure that the process to become a citizen takes multiple years and even longer if they come illegally so any schemes to use immigrants to influence elections has to start years and elections before the elections they can effect happen

with these requirements met getting public support for opening the borders for things like more work visas and migration would be a lot more tenable causing people to choose waiting legal immigration over illegal

I thought most would have been from Mexico and Central America, and some from South America, and a few from other countries. What are your thought on this issue?

The top five countries of origin for international migrants residing in the United States as of 2020 (excluding overseas territories) were:

-Mexico (10.94 million)

-India (3.44 million)

-China (2.88 million)

-Philippines (2.70 million)

-Viet Nam (1.59 million)"
