The trump Administration is planning to pass an Executive Order in the next 24 hours to suspend immigration to America.  While it's unlikely the President will change their mind on the general policy,

Even if we only get publicity then hopefully that pressure will result in change.  I've already contacted our local Senators and Congressman/woman.  Suggest people do the same.     500+ sign

Please be sure to include K-1 visas! Fiancés do not count as immediate family since they are not married yet, but it is just as hard for us.

Things people may need to know here about this order. 1. it is a 60 day freeze on immigration for those seeking a permanent status. 2. it is designed to ensure that once the US reopens, the workers who lost their jobs are able to get them back. This will not affect applications for a temporary visits, which by design that is what a K1 visa is (because a change of status is needed once the couple marries). and it will not affect visa's that are for minor children.

The details have not yet been provided, so it's impossible to know exactly who it will impact or not. There are some reports of text from a draft version, but nothing on a finalized version.

To my knowledge, USCIS is still processing visa's, this will only effect those who are in the process of receiving an I551 card currently. 

USCIS does not process visas.

The trump Administration is planning to pass an Executive Order in the next 24 hours to suspend immigration to America.  While it's unlikely the President will change their mind on the general policy, we believe they may consider a narrow exception for immediate family members of US Citizens, including fiancés.  We've started a petition a the White House which requires 10,000 signatures to get attention and 100,000 signatures to get a formal response.  Please join us by signing the petition at the following link.  We should have the membership to make a solid run at getting enough signatures!

(note the petition was changed to include fiance visa language... please verify you signed the updated petition if you signed earlier)

 

 

Signed. Please everyone share it on Social media. I hope they have these immediate family exclusion.

Trump during his press conference confirmed that there would be exemptions. Let’s hope that is for the immediate family relatives. EO will be signed by tomorrow morning. 

I did not know this. Lets pray
