US Doctor Wrongfully Ordered to Deport: Immigration System Failure
U.S. citizen and Connecticut physician Dr. Lisa Anderson received a DHS email ordering her immediate departure from the country, despite being a lifelong resident born in Pennsylvania. This follows a similar incident involving a Boston immigration attorney, also a U.S. citizen. A DHS official attributed the error to incorrect contact information provided by non-citizens, stating that notices were intended for those lacking lawful immigration status. Dr. Anderson, carrying her passport and seeking legal counsel, expressed concern that others may have dismissed similar emails as spam.
