Green Card Nightmare: NRIs Trapped in US?

Many Indians who got their US Green Cards through asylum might be better off avoiding any travel back home. As the immigration authorities are on high alert, their Green card could even be at risk of getting canceled.

A post on social media warned people getting Green Cards through Asylum and advised them to “postpone applying for citizenship or sponsoring your spouse/children until at least 2028.”

The user doesn’t take Trump’s name but the timeline makes it obvious it is because of his administration’s hard crackdown against immigrants. However, it also sparked the debate about asylum being misused for getting green cards.

The original poster claims they have witnessed hundreds and thousands of asylum Green card holders go to their home country and return to the US without any issues in the past. However, this time the government will not let it slide and might reopen your asylum case.

People are reacting strongly, saying this isn’t new, but now US authorities are more likely to enforce it strictly. Many believe it could lead to deportation if officials decide the original asylum claim was fake.

For NRIs, this could be a wake-up call not to relax once you get your Green Cards. If you return to India too soon or apply for US citizenship, your case could be investigated and possibly revoked.
