The government should be able to seek denaturalization of people who misuse the immigration system to oppress other immigrants (for example by ordering them to break laws, making them pay visa fees, etc).
This guy Katam was an immigrant himself, and became a US Citizen in 2009. If I was emperor, I would want him denaturalized. A year or so in prison is not enough punishment.
There's a reason why denaturalization usually only happens if you perjured your way into citizenship: it's an extremely severe action that is not meant to be a punishment, but rather to correct a mistake (according citizenship to somebody who in reality failed to meet certain criteria).
Denaturalization as punishment is something you see in totalitarian ethno-states, not democracies.
No in France you can loose your acquired nationality if you participated to terrorism against France. Was voted in the aftermath of the Paris attacks, though wasn't of much use since all the terrorists of those attacks were natives of either France or Belgium.
I wonder what happens if someone like Le Pen ever gets in charge. Being able to de-naturalize "terrorists" sounds like a pretty serious power that could be abused.
Doesn't India disallow dual citizenship? Wikipedia [1] claims that Article 9 of the Indian Constitution forbids it (note that the Overseas Citizenship of India designation is not actually citizenship). So denaturalization would legally leave the person stateless. Making a person stateless against their will is considered a serious violation of human rights, regardless of what they have done.
It’s a common thing, since sentences that are a year or less aren’t entitled to certain credits in some places (“good time” credit in the US federal system). Since this is a federal case, that is probably the reason.
Defense counsel will sometimes even ask for the extra day, since this credit will reduce the actual time served.
I think a year is usually a cutoff for sentencing rules.
For instance, in many places if you serve less than a year you are places in jail, rather than prison. (It is distinctly better to be in prison rather than jail in most cases.) I know in my State there are a lot of other rules that are different if your sentence is over a year or not, but I don't know what rules would be applicable in this case.
It's a tool to ingest raw h1b data into postgres, so you can study the data easier with SQL. It contains all rejected and approved cases from 2014 to 2018.
I am also working on an app that allows you to look at h1b data on web.
Hi, am looking for the H1B visa consultant for filing process currently. When you talk about the impunity stuff here can you please tell me 1 consulting company on this issue.?
His clients must be angry as hell. $3000 USD is a year's salary for many people in India, and was paid to a fellow Indian who took it to pad his pockets. This asshole was also an immigrant and knew what he was asking for from clients could be a life savings with help from friends and family.
All while bullshitting the government to only benefit himself. The sentence is quite deserving considering what a terrible person he was to many people.

Hell, we don't even particularly care if we make them stateless. (1)

This is a strange sentencing length; was there multiple charges of which one had a penalty of a day in prison?

How is this possible? Wouldn't the invalid arrangement have been flagged by e-Verify?
