Aaaand the events of this story are already almost 11 months old. I know I'm most likely one of the lucky ones there, but yeah, overall my experience of #usimmigration has been a lot of very stressful moments capped with anticlimatically quick and easy resolutions. Here's hoping that continues.

A comic titled "Immigration is fun (5)". It opens with a drawing of the narrator (a French person with an outfit with the colors of the French flag) and her spouse (a USAmerican with an outfit with the colors of the US flag) sitting in a government waiting room which consists of a bunch of large chairs far apart for one another. Two other people are seen waiting on other chairs nearby. Next to the French person and her spouse, another person is seen reading through documents big enough to hide their face.
A narration bubble comments: "A merciful 4 months after getting married, we got summoned for the green card interview. We had to wait in one of those rooms with chairs super far apart." An arrow points to the person reading, indicating with a caption: "This time, our attorney was with us." The narration continues: "We arrived at the scheduled time and got called in after about 3 hours of waiting. The tone of the interview itself was pretty friendly."
We then see the French and USAmerican spouses sitting in front of an officer who we only see the back of. The officer says: "I saw the wedding pictures you submitted – they looked adorable! Do you have photos printed here today?" The USAmerican spouse produces a small photo album, answering: "Yes, right here!" The officer responds: "Great! Then, I'd like you guys to pick a few from different dates, and tell me more about the story and memories behind them." Both spouses respond: "Sure!" in unison.

A continuation of the comic in the previous image. The two spouses sitting at the officer's desk are now seen from more of a distance, in a shadow puppet-like manner with silhouettes blacked in. They are commenting on the pictures in a very animated and disjointed manner to the officer whose facial expression looks a bit overwhelmed. Comments include: "So this one is from a time we hanged out with my brothers!" "This one was with my grandparents!" "I helped finish the bottle of wine that night!" "This one was from the Paris Olympics!" "This is the time you learned to chant 'Allez les bleus'!" "This was right at the end of our wedding! My mother-in-law accidentally threw her flower petals right in my face!" "This was at IHop the morning after our wedding!" "My eyes are puffy 'cus we cried a lot the previous night..."
Coming from out of frame, the attorney's voice interjects: "Um... Guys? I think that's enough. This officer has a packed enough schedule as it is..." Looking embarrassed, both spouses silence themselves, while the officer, while still a bit overwhelmed, smiles sympathetically with their eyes.

A continuation of the comic in the previous images. The French and USAmerican spouses are seen sitting in front of the officer again, smiling nervously. The officer, who we only see the back of once again, declares: "Well, I think I have everything I need! You should expect a decision in the near future. I can't promise an exact date though. It could take anytime from one day to two weeks." An arrow pointing to the French spouse, who looks extra nervous, comments: "Not knowing what to expect at all."
In the final panel, a narration box opens with "Less than 24 hours later." The French and USAmerican spouses are seen checking the former's phone with an impressed facial expression. The French spouse says: "Holy shit, honey... We did it. I got my green card." The USAmerican spouse responds: "That was so fast... Do you think it's 'cus we yapped a lot?"

Unless I'm reading this badly wrong and the administration puts out contrary implementation, it would appear that starting tonight, anyone with an H-1B who doesn't write a $100,000 check to the US government is banned from reentering the country if they're currently outside the US.

A conversation that genuinely happened several times in the months that lead up to me getting my green card #usimmigration #immigration #ice

A comic with minimalist coloring, depicting two characters standing side by side. At first, the only colors visible are the character's clothing: the one on the left is wearing a hoodie with the colors of the French flag, and the one on the right is wearing a T-shirt with the colors of the United States flag.
Panel 1: A speech bubble coming from an unseen interlocutor asks the French character: "So... You're still waiting to see if you green card is approved?" The French character responds: "Pretty much. Can't do much."
Panel 2: The off-screen interlocutor reacts: "Must be nerve-wracking to be in the middle of an immigration process in 2025. Aren't you afraid ICE might come after you?"
Panel 3: The French character and the USAmerican character look at each other awkwardly. The French character mutters: "I mean..."
Panel 4: The characters are now fully colored, revealing that the French character is white and the USAmerican character is latino, of darker skin. The French character awkwardly concludes: "They're probably come after you first, huh..." The USAmerican character, dejected, responds: "Yeah...", while an arrow pointing to them states: "Actual citizen."

Sorry it took me forever to share this one here TwT And sorry it's so wordy. But yeah, hopefully that can be informative. #usimmigration #immigration #france

Page 1 of a comic featuring a character wearing a hoodie with the French flag colors, which will from now on being referred to as "the French person".
Panel 1: Narration: "So here's something I've been getting a lot." A speech bubble coming from several people is addressed to the French person, as follows: "You sure chose the worst time to move to the US!"
Panel 2: The French person cracks a cynical smile, thinking: "Right. Chose." This panel triggers a flashback which continues until the end of the full comic.
Panel 3: Time card: "2017." Narration: "Started a long-distance queerplatonic relationship with a friend from California met online a year prior." The French person is seen talking with the Californian person in question via video call on a computer. Narration: "They're amazing. It's amazing."
Panel 4: Time card: "2018." The French person and the Californian person are seen hugging. Narration: "I visit California and we meet IRL for the first time. It's great. We plan to meet again some time in 2020, to give me time to save the money to travel this far again. (Money got twice as tight in Europe post-2008.)"

Page 2 of the comic started in the previous image.
Panel 1: Time card: "2020-2021." The Californian person and the French person are seen trying to communicate through a paper cup phone, but the line has been cut with scissors left on the floor. Both are tearing up. Narration: "In reaction to Covid, the US government banned travelers from several countries, including France, from entering the US, with only spouses and immediate relatives of citizens exempt. The ban lasts 605 days. By spring 2021, I snap and spend 3 months' salary on a 2-week trip to a non-banned country, so I can finally get to visit again. By late 2021, with still no end to the travel ban in sight, I'm thinking of ending things."
Panel 2: The Californian person and the French person are seen exchanging rings in front of the Eiffel tower, shedding happy tears. Narration: "In fall 2021, my partner traveled overseas alone for the first time to see me. They got us promise rings. So that a travel ban could never separate us again, if it were to happen again, we decided to get married, but not until four years later, so as to get our lives together a bit more and save some money for those plans.

Page 3 of the comic started in the two previous images.
Panel 1: Time card: "2022." Narration: "Due to my partner not speaking French, and due to the US having more of the geopolitical power to possibly put up another travel ban in the future, we concluded it'd be best for me to be the one to move to the US." The Californian person and the French person are seen looking at a graph, with concern. The graph shows two lines, a short one and a long one. The short line is captioned: "Immigration timeline pre-pandemic." The long one, which is 4 times longer than the short one, is captioned "Immigration timeline post-pandemic." Narration: "Tricky part: the pandemic-related travel bans and lockdowns created a backlog in immigration cases, making the immigration process go from a few months to possibly years.
Panel 2: Time card: "2024." Narration: "Since we figured it'd take a while, I proposed during a visit in January, and we got to work." The French person and the Californian person are seen holding hands, sharing a decided look. The French person says "Let's do this!", and the Californian person nods in approval.
Panel 3: Narration: "In April, after months of paperwork and trying to get a hold of the immigration attorney my partner found, our fiance-based immigration case is sent to US immigration services." The French person is seen holding a phone to their ear, sighing in relief, saying: "Finally!"

Page 4 of the comic started in the three previous images. Last page of said comic.
Panel 1: Narration: "In June, our case is approved to move forward, and I panic a little, 'cus ironically it's moving faster than I thought and the impending huge life change hits hard." The French person is seen sitting curled up on the floor, looking scared and pensive.
Panel 2: Narration: "In October, our case has been transferred to the visa center. After weeks of paperwork and trying to get a hold of the immigration attorney, I can finally schedule a visa interview." The French person is seen with a panicked look on their face. An arrow pointing to them adds the following caption: "I panic again 'cus the interview day is after our supposed case deadline."
Panel 3: Narration: "In December 2024, I'm granted a fiance visa. It expires less than 6 months later, which means I have until May 2025 to move to the US." The French person is putting their firsts up in the air in celebration, shouting: "Holy crap! It took forever, but we can get married next year like we wanted! USA, here I come..."
Panel 4: Before they can finish their last sentence, the French person turns to a map-like depiction of the USA, showing the country up in flames. They give it a puzzled look, commenting: "Wow, what the hell?"

...Well, mostly, the main reason why it took me so long to draw this is that I'm a lazy procrastinator who takes forever to get started... This is the start of a new series of comics I'm making called "A Parisian in Cali", also available on Webtoon and Tapas! We'll see how that goes #usimmigration

A comic depicting a character wearing a hoodie with the colors of the French flag. A narration box states: "A couple months ago."
The character is thinking to herself: "Now that I've made it from France to the US and I'm in immigration limbo, I could draw comics to show what the paperwork, the processes and the culture shock are like." She then interrupts herself, thinking: "Ah, nah... Nah, wait a sec. Might be a good idea to wait until you're OUT of immigration limbo before venting. Just in case."
A final narration box explains: "US immigration fun fact #1: The government keeps track of your social media as evidence until your green card is approved."
