Yeah but the EB-5 actually requires legwork to invest for job creation and such. This gold card is just telling the ultra rich throw money at it -

Yippie, interview done and approved. It was...interesting. Officer kept going in and out of their office and the interview took at least an hour with us being separated too. In the end officer said 3 weeks for the card in the mail, such a odd experience -
Has there been any VJ members at the San Diego FO in the past 2 weeks that attended an interview there? K1 or AOS? You did this K1 process in 2014, you can't tell me it's the same government nor the same USCIS in how policy is done. You're implying nothing has changed, when policy changed right before our eyes. Groups of AILA lawyers have gathered and said this is happening at the SD FO, and pop ups happening at other places, are we really dismissing what lawyers have said about this?

Same here. Just found a person from SD FO that did get approved, and the officer did make mention about overstays. "She made it very clear to us that each day after the end date written on the I-94 is considered by law an overstay. Doesn’t matter if you file before expiration" and a later comment "Even if you do it with the K-1 visa, which is meant for this purpose, you end up overstaying cause there’s no way you can go through the wedding and the whole process in less than 3 months. That’s why it’s usually forgiven, as it should. Under this administration tho…" This brings the fact up that this particular FO is going off the chain. https://www.reddit.com/r/USCIS/s/0g3ShyZYmp

(Deleted the reddit post off the quote, since it takes so much space) They've posted a comment: https://www.reddit.com/r/USCIS/comments/1pjd7ce/uscis_aos_interview_san_diego_ice/ntcntzw/ " She wasn’t “picked up” for an overstay in the way people usually mean it. Her I-94 was still valid when we got married, and we filed the I-130/I-485 while she was in a lawful period of stay. What happened is that the officer at the interview treated it as an overstay situation even though the dates were valid, and ICE acted on that assumption. We’re now addressing it through an attorney because the timeline shows she was still in status when we submitted everything. I can’t get into more details publicly, but that’s the core of it." -- And what sense does it make to detain them, when there is no legal premise to deport them? What sense does it make to rip families apart and sending a person TO JAIL when USCIS has the jurisdiction? We shouldn't have sympathy for these non-criminals to suffer the deplorable conditions at ICE facilities? When there's report and proof of physical and sexual abuse, medical neglect? But we'll deny that fact?

Just to continue I found this: " She originally entered the U.S. on a J-1 visa. Before her J-1 status ended, you filed a Change of Status (COS) to B-2. USCIS approved that COS and issued an I-94 showing B-2 status valid She remained in the U.S. the entire time — no departures. Married You filed I-130 + I-485 Once USCIS accepted the filing and issued receipts in early July 2025, she was in pending AOS status. She now has a C09 EAD (10/24/2025–10/23/2030). " It really is just a waste of money to just be detaining people when they're legally allowed to adjust and USCIS has the jurisdiction to. It's also a waste of money diverting other federal officers from their other jobs that is clearly more important than non-criminal AOS interview goers.

It's been reported by several news stations and here that it's the San Diego FO and some other California FOs. The WHY is being reported, it's in the article! The pattern has been there, it's reported on. Lawyers have confirmed the memo across AILA.

Yeah, inspected and paroled still doesn't mean you need to be taken by ICE. Husband is a USC, it's the first paragraph "A Ukrainian woman married to a United States citizen has become one of the latest applicants to be detained by federal agents at their green card interview, despite her husband saying she had always had legal status." https://www.uscis.gov/policy-manual/volume-7-part-b-chapter-2 " INA 245(a) Adjustment of Status Eligibility Requirements The alien must have been: Inspected and admitted into the United States; or Inspected and paroled into the United States." Parole isn't an issue. I've also seen nearly every I130 result in an interview regardless of how long the relationship was/proof you have. (i.e I'm one of them)
-
Chatter as well with several lawyer groups with AILA saying this was a true document. USCIS interviews could easily be more than 30 min.

https://www.newsweek.com/wife-detained-green-card-interview-ice-san-diego-11176819 This time it's someone with TPS that applied with a I-485 before their status was up, with authorized stay. Someone tell me where's the wrong here. No one can tell me how this doesn't disprove the chatter people were saying about the K1s even those who filed within the 90 days.

Your turn will honestly be whenever the case officer will get to it, some take off the top, some take from the bottom, some take from the middle. There is no order really, just whenever they get to it. And especially now with the 19 countries being blacklisted for things it's getting more workload on USCIS.

I'm talking about the situation here: which is different from what the main post case is. K1 arrived, They married and filed before the 90 days. Doing everything right, i see nothing about working without auth in that post, if you wanna show where it is. i mean sure, but that person has been contributing in that community for a bit....same can be said about any information here. Community is made by people, including this forum where people (who aren't lawyers) give their experiences and information for other to take from.

On their flair they stated that they are, reddit doesn't show flairs on mobile iirc Edit: And their bio on reddit about about paid services

In the comments states a lawyer saying "They also arrested and detained 2 individuals in California (the same week) who entered on K-1 visas. They married and filed before the 90 days. But once the I-94 expires, you are considered an overstay. So they literally did everything the right way, but ICE used a loophole to boost their detention numbers. It’s absolutely batshit insane. I was totally beside myself when I found out about that."
