菲律宾裔美国人担忧新USCIS配额下的公民身份剥夺

2024年新增美国公民中规模第三大的归化菲律宾人,对特朗普政府的公民身份剥夺举措日益焦虑。随着USCIS实施每月100-200个案件转介目标——此前报道详述——律师敦促采取防范措施,以防过去申请的潜在审计。

归化证书代表了许多菲律宾家庭追求美国梦的来之不易的里程碑。然而,特朗普政府的新公民身份剥夺举措,为USCIS每月向DOJ转介100至200个案件设定了配额(先前报道),正在这一社区引发广泛恐慌。

菲律宾人特别脆弱:仅2024年就有超过41,000人宣誓效忠,而在210万菲律宾出生美国居民中,约160万(76%)已归化——这是主要移民群体中最高的比率。

“我们的许多 kababayans 非常恐惧,并询问他们是否在范围内,”旧金山移民律师Lou Tancinco表示。常见担忧包括过去的刑事定罪、移民欺诈、婚姻虚假陈述或未披露子女。即使是轻微错误,如不正确的旅行日期或不完整的就业历史,也可能引发审查,尽管只有影响资格的重大谎言才会被撤销。

2017年最高法院案Maslenjak诉美国保护免于因琐碎虚假陈述而被剥夺公民身份。Tancinco强调:“USCIS不能简单撤销公民身份。”归化公民有权获得联邦法院听证,由政府承担举证责任。她建议在签署任何USCIS声明前咨询律师。

这一政策播下了对严重问题和诚实错误的双重焦虑,威胁着长期居民的安全。
