Q & A
What is happening to Indian students and workers in America according to the script?
-Indian students and workers in America are facing a growing risk of deportation, with many having their visas revoked for minor violations like traffic tickets, even years after the incident. This issue is compounded by new policies that target legal immigrants, especially those with Indian backgrounds, and an AI program monitoring their social media.
What was the change in Trump's approach towards immigration between 2017 and 2025?
-In 2017, Trump's immigration policy primarily focused on building a wall and targeting undocumented immigrants. However, in 2025, his administration shifted focus to aggressively target legal immigrants as well, with a policy that allows ICE to review minor violations, including those already resolved, and revoke visas based on these past offenses.
How has ICE's role changed under Trump's administration?
-Under Trump's 2025 administration, ICE agents are now under pressure to meet quotas, targeting 3,000 arrests every day. This has led to 'collateral arrests,' where anyone present during a raid can be arrested, regardless of their immigration status, blurring the lines between legal and illegal immigrants.
What is the 'catch and revoke' program mentioned in the script?
-The 'catch and revoke' program is an initiative by the U.S. State Department that uses artificial intelligence to monitor foreign nationals, particularly students, by scraping their social media accounts. The program flags individuals based on their online activity, including support for groups like Hamas, and can lead to visa revocation.
Who is Stephen Miller, and what is his role in the immigration policies?
-Stephen Miller is the architect behind many of Trump's immigration policies, both in his first and second terms. He has been a vocal advocate for reducing immigration to the U.S., regardless of whether it is legal or illegal, and has pushed for policies that target legal immigrants and increase deportations.
What impact has the new immigration policy had on Indian students and workers?
-Indian students and workers, who make up a significant portion of international students and H1-B visa holders in the U.S., are disproportionately affected by the new policies. Many face the risk of deportation or visa termination due to minor offenses, such as traffic violations, even years after the incident.
How are deportation scams affecting Indian students?
-Indian students are becoming targets for deportation scams, where criminals impersonate immigration officers and demand money in exchange for preventing deportation. In one case, a student lost 4.2 lakh INR to such a scam.
What challenges do Indian immigrants face in obtaining a green card?
-Indian immigrants face significant delays in obtaining a green card due to a backlog. Currently, Indians must wait up to 195 years to receive a green card due to a cap on the number of employment-based green cards issued per country, which disproportionately affects countries with large populations like India.
What is the current situation for H1-B visa holders under Trump's new rules?
-H1-B visa holders face an uncertain future, as Trump's new rules allow for the revocation of visas even for minor offenses. Additionally, layoffs can lead to deportation, and the 60-day window for finding a new job after being laid off might be reduced to just 30 days.
What advice is being given to Indian students planning to study in the U.S.?
-Indian students planning to study in the U.S. are advised to approach their education with a backup plan, not assume permanent settlement, avoid massive loans, and focus on building globally valuable skills. They are also encouraged to document every immigration interaction and keep lawyers on standby.
