Someone to keep in prayers/thoughts.
A co-worker of mine is an immigrant worker from India here in the US. He's a contractor and has only a small window of time once going to a new job to get his work approval through immigration so that he can stay. He's been in the US for years without issue, he follows the rules, he's a good person.
Turns out that due to some work visa unethical behavior/loophole exploitation related to people in India being dishonest about their qualifications and applying to jobs in the US, the process for getting clearance has slowed down considerably. To make matters worse, the new presidential administration and their constant changes to immigration policy have left him trying (and getting little response) to get reapproved to remain in the states.
LSS: His deadline is coming up due to no fault of his own and he's afraid of being forced to go home. I feel really bad for the guy. This sucks.
