Interesting Outcomes in our Immigration System

Lucy's presentation will cover issues that arise from people thinking they know the answers to their immigration problems and the interesting outcomes that result. It will cover visa preference categories/priority dates/quotas; bars to admissibility to the USA for seemingly innocuous things and finding out that you are a U.S. Citizen without realizing it.
