Dear TLAW Readers:
We understand that the current climate surrounding immigration is marked by uncertainty and anxiety. The recent implementation of new regulations and policy shifts has raised significant concerns for both undocumented individuals and lawful permanent residents. At Tancinco Law, we recognize the profound impact these changes have on your lives and are committed to providing you with clear, accurate, and empathetic guidance.

This month’s newsletter addresses a critical issue: your rights during secondary inspection by Customs and Border Protection (CBP) at airports. We’ve observed a concerning trend of increased detentions and even expedited removals, leaving many travelers, including green card holders, apprehensive about international travel. We offer detailed information to help you understand your rights and navigate these challenging situations. We recognize the difficult decision many are facing regarding travel and encourage you to carefully weigh the risks and benefits.
Furthermore, we’ve included comprehensive summaries of the recent Registration Act and Real ID Act regulations. These new rules necessitate careful consideration and proactive steps to ensure compliance. We strongly advise you to consult with an experienced immigration attorney before taking any action that could potentially affect your immigration status or lead to detention.
Amidst these challenges, we also want to acknowledge the ongoing availability of family and employment-based visa petitions. While priority dates may advance slowly, we remain optimistic about the eventual processing of these applications. Patience and persistence are key during this time.
In these uncertain times, vigilance and informed decision-making are paramount. We at Tancinco Law are dedicated to providing you with the support and expertise you need to protect your rights and navigate the complexities of immigration law. We prioritize confidentiality and are committed to safeguarding your personal information.
We deeply value your trust and continued support. Please do not hesitate to reach out to us with any questions or concerns.
Sincerely,
Atty. Lou
