Immigration rights attorney/US Citizen receives troubling letter from Department of Homeland Security

By immigrationprof

 

It appears that, as previously reported, U.S. citizens apparently are not immune from threats of removal from the United States. The latest is a report that an immigration attorney in Los Angeles who received a troubling letter from the Department of Homeland Security telling her that it “is time for you to leave the United States.”  Another mistake or a veiled threat? 

Here is more on the story from the Los Angeles Times.

UPDATE (April 26):   The Associated Press  (“Orders to leave the country — some for US citizens — sow confusion among immigrants”) picks up on the mistaken notes to leave the country sent to U.S. citizens.
