Do you know of anyone who has been allowed legal entry into the us since 9/11?

Question

I know MANY people who have tried to enter our country LEGALLY and for NO REAON AT ALL INS Denies them. Im not making excues for illegal entry - but does it matter to you at all that people are trying to enter the USA Legally?

Answer 1

Well not personally. Most of the ones that I know have entered illegally due to the fact that if the Mexicans want to enter legally they have at least a 15 year wait on a green card after applying. Lets compare that to a person who graduates from high-school at 17 years of age but is not allowed a work permit for 15 years. What does he do in the meantime to support himself? Maybe he can just starve to death....before he is able to work at 32 years of age. Sounds like not only do we need immigration reform someone needs to completely tear down the structure of INS and completely rebuild it so that we don't have immigration officers not earning their money and who have the attitude I will get to them when I can. Please keep in mind that many of these immigration officers also accept bribes. Lots of corruption and misuse of government funds.

Answer 2

I don't believe anyone has been denied entry for no reason at all. I think that the INS agent who would deny someone entry is just a bureaucrat working under federal guidelines and there are occasionally mistakes made.

I also believe that there is so much anger against the US at this time (for whatever reason, perhaps Iraq?) that we will not be able to stop hate at the borders. When they decide they want to kill us again, they will. Remember that it was eight years between the first Al Quada attack on the World Trade Center and the second.

This government has not made the world safer since 9/11, and that is according to THIS GOVERNMENT.Here is a quote from an American intelligence assessment dated September 24, 2006. " the war in Iraq has increased Islamic radicalism, worsening the terror threat"

"Unfortunately, under the pretext of fighting "The War on Terror"-the war without boundaries, the war without end, many of our civil liberties have been discarded. The so called "Patriot Act has allowed Big Brother not just to stick his foot in your door and listen to your conversations, but also to close the door in your face.

Answer 3

Myself. I got a greencard after 9/11.

I know plenty more people from work and also greencard holders who became citizens.

And yes - it matters to me that a lot of people try to enter the US legally and can't. It is difficult. I just know how hard it is - and now probably even harder than ever - to get working visa or greencard. I feel bad for the people who can't get here legally but would be honest people and good workers and good immigrants.

On the other hand - it makes sense to not allow everybody too, just because there are too many out there now who want to do harm to the US. The INS seems to be pretty effective.....

Answer 4

There are numerous cases of people who have been denied legal entry even on tourist or work visas. In fact, many colleges have been unable to have foreign-born professors return as guest lecturers, often for no other reason that the professor is Islamic.

Sadly, that is all legal. Congress has exclusive control over setting the rules for who can travel into or out of the country.

Answer 5

i've got not got faith every person has been denied get right of entry to for no reason in any respect. i think of that the INS agent who might deny somebody get right of entry to is in easy terms a bureaucrat working under federal rules and there are especially situations blunders made. I even have faith that there is lots anger against the U. S. at the instant (for despite reason, consistent with probability Iraq?) that we is truthfully no longer waiting to quit hate on the borders. while they decide for they want to kill us back, they'll. remember that it become 8 years between the 1st Al Quada attack on the international commerce center and the 2nd. This government has no longer made the international safer considering that 9/11, and that's in accordance to THIS government.right that could be a quote from an American intelligence assessment dated September 24, 2006. " the war in Iraq has bigger Islamic radicalism, worsening the phobia probability" "regrettably, under the pretext of battling "The war on Terror"-the war with out boundary lines, the war with out end, a lot of our civil liberties have been discarded. The so referred to as "Patriot Act has allowed vast Brother no longer in easy terms to adhere his foot on your door and pay attention on your conversations, yet additionally to close the door on your face.

Answer 6

Yes, I know quite a few people who have been allowed legal entry, but it seems somewhat uneven ... would appear to me that you would have more problems if you're from an islamic country ...

That is of course totally unfair and appears to be an arbitrary way of deciding who is allowed entry and who isn't ...

Answer 7

I was. I am Canadian married to an American. We started some paperwork on my immigration, nothing had been approved or denied yet, and now I am stuck here until my paperwork is done. I didn't work illegally, have no criminal record,etc. I am so mad. I thought I was safe to come for a visit.

Answer 8

i know a lot of people who came in legally, my mother in law , my parents a lot friends extended family. In our community very very few people come illegally. It is not worth to stay with fear of being deported.

Answer 9

No one should be able to be entered, and those who cross right now should be shot. Seriously, if they can cross the border to get welfare or work the terrorists can definately pay them off to run in and set up a bomb in L.A.

Answer 10

Lots of them,Legally!
