why dont he just file dual citizenship?
No, the public school system is a reflection of the two most influential movements in this country…politics and religion…both of which are threatening and dangerous…I should have sent my kids to school in the Philippines. Really shows how far behind the US education system is.
You just can’t jump ship anymore and marry an American citizen. Those days are over. There is much more to it.Is Dennis married? Plenty of American women would marry Dennis. Maybe that's the answer. Seems like Hohmann and Immonen spend a lot of time in the US also.

Okay the question then becomes why aren't some Europeans experiencing problems with staying in the US?You just can’t jump ship anymore and marry an American citizen. Those days are over. There is much more to it.
Maybe you haven't been paying attention. What happened to Dennis is at the sole discretion of the immigration/customs officer at the airport. There is no cast in stone rule, it's open to interpretation. Perhaps the Euros aren't staying here as long and coming as often as Dennis . Perhaps they are but just haven't encountered an agent enforcing a decision.Okay the question then becomes why aren't some Europeans experiencing problems with staying in the US?
My guess is they pay closer attention to the total time they spend here or some may be getting green cards. I know Immonen and Hohmann live here a lot so they may have gotten GC's. Also some Euro's only come over for an event or two and go home. Dennis stays and plays lots of gambling matches. Its the long stays here and short one's back home that put you at risk.Okay the question then becomes why aren't some Europeans experiencing problems with staying in the US?
Because he is not a US citizenwhy dont he just file dual citizenship?
The process can take forever for one. Your also now bound by two sets of laws and the possibility(likelihood) of dual taxation. There are both good/bad sides to doing it. Easier to just stay on top of your stay lengths.why dont he just file dual citizenship?

more than 2 million have illegally crossed the southern borderWe have thousands of people pouring across the southern border and here is a guy doing the right thing and he gets this?
Dilemma: Illegals crossing the border for a better life and jobs. Legals that have been here for generations and want to live off the dole (food stamps, Medicade, SSI, WIC etc.).more than 2 million have illegally crossed the southern border

Wow Jay, the USCIS offices here in Cleveland move much faster, which still feels like a snail's pace.I met my wife over six years ago in Angeles City, Philippines. It took six months for us to get her visa to come here at a cost of over $3,000. The fiancee visa was good for 90 days and we had to marry or she would be sent back. We married within one month and it took a year to get her conditional Green card, that was good for two years (two thousand dollars later). After eighteen months she applied for her "permanent" Green card which is good for ten years and is renewable over and over again for another ten years, like a passport. We have been waiting for a year and a half now and she is on "conditional" status here until she gets it. About $2,000 spent on this process. We have been told it can take 2-3 years now to get the permanent Green card. So we are in limbo, after she has been in the USA (and married to me) for four and half years. The delays are long due to the Pandemic, and we have no way of knowing how much longer it will be. All we can do is check the mailbox every day.
