You should not take the risk of traveling by air, if the news of TSA working hand in hand with ICE is to be believed. having said that, I do believe in this news. as TSA is said to be providing all info related to the Travellers and they are being stopped at the gate. I suggest you take a road trip instead.
wait for other responses here. but I would suggest you to drive rather than fly.

you should not be traveling under no circumstances right now. with TSA working with ice I strongly believe you should not take that chance

Hello folks, i need your prayers, help and encouragement.
I had 2 rejections due to the increament in the money order that wasn't known to my attorney and according to the Department Of Homeland Security, the content of the second notice was that, the Form I-360 wasn't submitted within 2 years of the death of my US citizen Spouse.
But couple of months later, that's 02/20/24, my EAD was sent to me.
lmmediately, my attorney filed for my green card.
Then a couple of months later again, a notice of rejection was sent by the Department of Homeland Security that the case should be dismissed because Form I-360 was not submitted within 2 years of the death of my US citizen spouse.
On the 05/06/25, my attorney appealed the case, but the DOHS responded by requesting that the Board should not disturb the decision of the case base on the above reasons.
Am hoping that God use the Board to break all protocols for my favour.
Thank you all.

A significant new rule from the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) concerning U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) and U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) takes effect on December 26, 2025.
This final rule expands the mandatory collection of biometric data, primarily facial recognition photographs, from all non-U.S. citizens—including green card holders and most Canadian visitors—upon entering and exiting the United States.
Key Details of the New Rule
Mandatory Biometrics for Non-Citizens: The rule eliminates previous exemptions (such as for most Canadians and children under 14 or adults over 79) and mandates that virtually all non-U.S. citizens must have their photographs taken for facial recognition comparison upon entry and departure. In select cases, other biometrics like fingerprints or DNA could be required.
Expanded Locations: The program removes limitations on pilot programs and port locations, allowing for the collection of biometrics at all airports, land ports, and seaports.
Purpose: According to the DHS and CBP, the rule is designed to enhance national security, combat visa fraud, identify criminals and suspected terrorists, and accurately track overstays by implementing a comprehensive biometric entry/exit system.
Data Retention: Photographs collected from foreign travelers can be stored in a DHS database for up to 75 years.
U.S. Citizens: U.S. citizens are not subject to the mandatory biometric rule, but may voluntarily participate. Those who wish to opt out can notify a CBP officer for a manual passport inspection.

I traveled last week with my Driver’s Licenses and EAD from Dallas to Las Vegas and everything was "normal"; I didn't see anything different with the TSA. If you don't have a criminal record, pending court case, or any recent problems with the law, go ahead and travel!

I have a genuine question
if we have legal entry with overstay visa and pending Vawa and asylum in process with 6PF , we do still have issue to green card @Ashraf Ahmed please respond it’s seems you got real clear knowledge on this

@eliza T but I overstayed in 2018, got married to a US citizen, then entered with vawa. I have no criminal records, no pending court. I’m scared to be deported just because I overstayed in the past, even if I have my prima facie valid
