Attorneys in Georgia have amended a lawsuit against the State Department's revocation of international student visas, addressing two major issues: the treatment of visa revocations and a new ICE policy that could lead to increased power to terminate students' legal status. With a large number of international students facing deportation risks, the suit argues that recent actions by ICE and visa revocations should be viewed as part of a larger illegal strategy. Many affected students have previously challenged legal status terminations successfully, raising concerns about the long-standing belief that F-1 visa revocations are typically exempt from court challenges.
Charles Kuck, one of the attorneys in the Georgia case, stated his plans to file amendments targeting both visa revocation and ICE's expanded authority to terminate residency.
The filing claims that the SEVIS terminations are illegal and connects the visa revocations to a broader strategy against international students' legal status in the U.S.
Countless international students are at risk of deportation, having filed over a hundred lawsuits, many resulting in restored rights to remain in the U.S.
Immigration law experts indicate that F-1 visa revocations are generally seen as beyond the reach of court challenges, complicating the legal landscape.
