LOS ANGELES (AP) — The U.S. government agency that oversees immigration applications is launching an office that will focus on identifying Americans who are suspected of cheating to get their citizenship and seek to strip them of it.

U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services Director L. Francis Cissna told The Associated Press in an interview that his agency is hiring several dozen lawyers and immigration officers to review cases of immigrants who were ordered deported and are suspected of using fake identities to later get green cards and citizenship through naturalization.

Cissna said the cases would be referred to the Department of Justice, whose attorneys could then seek to remove the immigrants’ citizenship in civil court proceedings. In some cases, government attorneys could bring criminal charges related to fraud.

Until now, the agency has pursued cases as they arose but not through a coordinated effort, Cissna said. He said he hopes the agency’s new office in Los Angeles will be running by next year but added that investigating and referring cases for prosecution will likely take longer.

“We finally have a process in place to get to the bottom of all these bad cases and start denaturalizing people who should not have been naturalized in the first place,” Cissna said. “What we’re looking at, when you boil it all down, is potentially a few thousand cases.”

Someone in another thread said that the 'kids in cages' story is being used as a way to deflect from the other heinous changes that are being implemented under the radar when it comes to immigration in this country. Well here ya go. USCIS will go after you even after you are already an American citizen 'if you lied in your application'. Read the second link (New yorker magazine link)as to why this is a big deal.

Immigrants, no matter how long they have been in this country, or even if they have already naturalized, are under attack in this country. This much is very clear.

Remember when we had fools who said that Trump would be too incompetent to ruin the country?

Good times.

Criteria for people they’re targeting is probably:

Foreign sounding name

Place of origin being Latin America, Africa, or the brown parts of Asia

White Muslims from the Balkans

Someone I know immigrated to the US by paying off a puerto rican woman into marriage and when he got the citizenship they divorced as previously agreed on, I hope he doesnt get caught I guess, last I heard he managing his own business.

It is but 2018 can't easily stifle administrative actions like this not really. Democrats still need Trump to sign a budget if they take the house and the other way around there'll be compromise, it's not like they can defund USCIS (and they shouldn't). A Democrat president can simply dissolve this task force with the stroke of a pen.

I'm going through some issues with USCIS right now. I've been wondering what the hell is going on.

I think this administration just got way more personal for me. I'm livid and scared.

I have an idiot acquaintance who supported Trump.

Idiot because her sister did exactly this after over-staying her visa.

So they are establishing an office specifically for this purpose?...
I mean..., the comparisons aren't really flattering with the current tone in the discussion.

Is there any way to block them?

Always knew they'd go after naturalized citizens, but was hoping it wouldn't come to that. Fucking hell.

Watch mis abuelos get denaturalized, and deported, even though they both passed away.

Yeah, I get worried because my last name looks Spanish (it's Polish), even though I'm from Scotland. I actually can't find my naturalization papers since I moved years ago. I have my passport, which can luckily be used to renew itself every ten years. You can get a copy of your naturalization papers from DHS for like $300, but I get nervous that if I request them, they're gonna try flag me or something, even though everything was legit.

This is disgusting and serves zero purpose. It's a waste of time, money, and human life. Fuck this administration and fuck everyone who's complicit in this. Fuck everyone who works for this agency that exists only to play a role in the white's security theater.

The GOP is trying to fight back the demographic trends that will make hispanics the majority in the US in like 30 years or whatever. Hopefully they are stopped before this goes any farther, because I'm afraid of how that's going to progress.

Yeah sure Jan....

Then when it's MUCH MORE, "who knew there were so many, we're just doing our jobs".
