I honestly don't know. I fear they think we married for citizenship even though I never went through our marriage. Or maybe they lump me into the people they claim to hate because as a child I was here undocumented and they can't accept that. I'm truly not sure without a conversation with them. I thought we could at least have one not that they would give us the silent treatment

I'm an immigrant myself, a citizen after 20 years, and know immigration laws pretty well. Nobody gets deported for running a red light 20 years ago. This is just nonsense. I support ICE. Fully. I'm sick and tired of illegals sucking up resources just because they can. Your ILs are not picking up your message, because it's confrontational. They don't know immigration laws, just like you don't know immigration laws of say, Bulgaria. Not sure what you want from them? A promise you'll not get deported? They cannot give you that. If you used any resources before becoming a citizen, it may become a problem. They don't know what to say, because no matter what they say, it seems to be a problem for you. It's not their fault you were here undocumented as a child. In most countries, in fact in all I know, and I've lived and had long-term residence in 10 different ones, you'd get kicked out as soon as you're found out. I'm sure you had a better life here than in your home country, or you'd not have arrived here undocumented (and I hate this word, because you sure have documents somewhere). And if you hate it here or think you're entitled to stay no matter what and cannot, you know where your home country is.

You are completely out of the loop, PP. I talk to immigration lawyers NOW, who tell me their clients HAVE been detained for entirely outrageous reasons. They get them out, but not before they suffer weeks, sometimes months, in the most horrendous detention conditions. And those are the lucky people who are rich enough to retain lawyers, and who were actually allowed to call a lawyer. A lot can't even do that, because ICE puts them on a fast track to deportation without due process, WHICH IS ENTIRELY ILLEGAL.

The government is not actually implementing immigration laws! It is detaining and deporting people illegally.

Well, I'm literally in the immigrant community and don't know a single person who has been detained and deported. I'm certainly not out of the loop. Stop distributing fear. It's impossible to detain and deport people illegally here since the lawyers are all lined up. You really think any other country would spend months in courts over some illegal? Allow me to laugh. Like this woman who is an "activist" in Colorado, was hiding in church, completely illegal, and they cannot get rid of her!

They have been detaining US born citizens who LOOK LIKE FOREIGNERS just in case. Sometimes their family doesn't even know where they were taken.

This is just so sad to me. And yes I will and I'm renewing my card this year and I'll file for an adjustment soon. I guess it's good I don't look like a foreigner just basic white girl with a slight texas accent

When you renew your card can't they deport you? Have you ever gotten a speeding ticket? If you are married to a citizen, why would't you become a citizen already? It's the only want to stay safe now.

I see posts on X about them dragging off citizen's spouses going for their naturalization.

Even if not logical, Grandparents might be very afraid.
