She said she now has a multiple entry F1 visa and already started the green card application process with the help of her employer.


So did she have the proper work visa or not? Wasn't she already supposed to have a green card?

She's a current professor at Clemson right?

Or was that just a fake early report like they always are?

Why would she try to fly back to the US 6 days into a 21-day vacation to Iran to see her family?

It sounds like she was just craving some attention so she decided to create a situation that would go viral on social media and earn her some good girl points.

If she had returned on her originally scheduled flight the "kinks" in this EO issued on a Friday would have most likely been worked out.

Interesting "news" piece from NBC when I googled F1 Visa:

Officials Say Visas Were Being Revoked Prior to Trump’s Executive Order

LINK

quote:

President Donald Trump signed an executive order halting refugee admissions and immigration from certain Arab countries on Friday, but federal officials told NBC News that immigration officers may have been stopping and even banning valid visa holders from returning to the country weeks before the official directive.

Two federal officials familiar with the situation confirmed to NBC News that as many as 40 individuals with F1 student visas, many who left the country for winter break, were told their visas were revoked when they returned stateside to resume classes.

One of the individuals left the country on Jan. 3 and his visa was revoked on Jan. 4, one immigration official confirmed. An official stated that this is highly unusual since the individual had already been put through extensive security vetting prior to his departure.


Where was all of the coverage and outrage when these dozens of F1 Visa holders were refused entry while Obama was President?
