Elderly Indian green card holders pressured at US airports

timesnownews.com

Elderly Indian green card holders are facing increased pressure at US airports to surrender their residency status. Immigration attorneys report that many are subjected to secondary inspections and threats of detention if they refuse to sign Form I-407. This scrutiny primarily targets individuals who spend long periods outside the US, particularly those who winter in India. Attorneys warn that signing the form can lead to losing the right to challenge the abandonment of their residency status in court. Experts emphasize that green card holders should not surrender their cards under pressure. They advise maintaining documentation to prove residency and highlight that only an immigration judge can revoke a green card.
