So does this mean that there are 20,000 Koreans listed that are registered for citizenship but are just stuck in processing, and the remaining 120,000 are here illegally? If so I can see why they are deporting the 120,000 but, I don't understand why they are deporting the 20,000 as if they are here legally they should have visas showing their status of being here.
The options are not "seeking citizenship" and "here illegally". Most of those people are here on student visas or work visas of one kind of another.
That's understandable I forgot about work/student non-immigrant visa's, these still fall under a legal visa, I don't understand why people with legal visas are being the target. They are in the country legally, there shouldn't be any grounds for deportation for those. Being said after looking into it, it doesn't seem like they need a reason to deport valid visa holders, which is screwed up honestly.
They have already announced plans to deport the Haitians in Springfield that are here legally too. I don't know why anyone is shocked by this.
