USCIS denials could now result in deportation

IMMIGRATION CORNER
The Trump administration recently sent out an email that is very alarming and disturbing to anyone filing a petition or application for an immigration benefit. It advises that if the US Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) denies a case, they may issue a Notice to Appear (NTA), placing the person in deportation/removal proceedings. That is a radical departure from past practices, where USCIS may deny a case but would usually not put the person in deportation.
The email, entitled "USCIS initiates removal proceedings against 26,000 aliens since February," informs the public that since February 2025, the USCIS "has initiated removal (deportation) proceedings against more than 26,700 aliens with no legal basis to remain in the country." This is part of the Trump administration's efforts "to restore integrity and ensure the security of our nation's immigration system."
