Indian Green Card holders face increased residency anxiety

Many Indian Green Card holders in the U.S. are feeling anxious due to past policies that raised concerns about their residency status. The "public charge" rule, expanded during Donald Trump's presidency, caused confusion about the use of public benefits. While a president cannot directly revoke a Green Card, enforcement priorities can create risks for permanent residents, especially those with complicated immigration histories. Increased scrutiny and executive orders during Trump's term heightened fears among some Green Card holders. A Green Card can be revoked under specific circumstances, such as serious crimes or fraud. However, due process is required, and Green Card holders can defend themselves in immigration court. Those uncertain about their status are advised to consult an immigration lawyer.
