LINK First Lady's Parents Become U.S. Citizens Thanks To 'Chain Migration' : NPR

Wow those must be talented folks she has as parents. Wait don't tell me... they don't come from a shithole country, right?

*First lady Melania Trump's Slovenian-born parents were sworn in as U.S. citizens Thursday, benefiting from a path to citizenship known as family-based immigration that the president and others have derisively dubbed "chain migration."

  • ...

The lawyer acknowledged that the Knavses had obtained citizenship via the very pathway that their son-in-law, the president, has so publicly denounced. Wildes called chain migration a "dirtier" way of characterizing "a bedrock of our immigration process when it comes to family reunification," according to The New York Times.
...

*The first lady was born in Slovenia, then part of Yugoslavia, in 1970. She first came to the United States in 1996. She obtained a green card in 2001 and became a naturalized citizen in 2006.

  • However, the circumstances of her immigration are not entirely clear.

In November 2016, the AP reported that she was paid for several modeling jobs in the U.S. before obtaining a work visa, which would be illegal under immigration law.

Her green card was granted under the elite EB-1 program, according to The Washington Post. That preferential program, popularly known as the "Einstein visa," is intended for immigrants with "extraordinary ability, [who] are an outstanding professor or researcher, or are a multinational executive or manager," according to the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services.

I don’t believe for a second they went about it without a little assistance. I had been in America for seven years before getting a freaking green card, which I’ve now had for 13 years. I am not a citizen by choice. I’ll stay a proud Canadian.. especially under this dictator.
