This New York doctor who’s been treating coronavirus patients says she’s still reeling days after getting a devastating letter: Her green card application was denied. “I’m honestly beside myself. It’s like a slap in the face.”
"I'm putting my life on the line every day to do this, and it's just blowing my mind right now that they are not appreciating it or they don't see the value in what I'm offering to do," Dr. Julia Iafrate told CNN's Chris Cuomo on Tuesday."I'm honestly beside myself. It's like a slap in the face."Iafrate is an assistant professor at Columbia University Medical Center who specializes in sports medicine.
And I was just blown away that at this time, of all times, they don't think it's necessary to have someone like me here."Asked about Iafrate, US Citizenship and Immigration Services said in a statement that it doesn't comment on decisions related to individual cases."USCIS evaluates each petition, application and request on a case-by-case basis to determine if they meet all standards required under applicable laws, regulations, and policies.
