2:30 pm - 3:30 pm ESTThis session examines how the Supreme Court’s June 2026 decision in Blanche v. Lau reshaped the legal standard for treating returning lawful permanent residents as applicants for admission at the border, and what that shift means for immigration attorneys advising LPR clients before international travel. Attorneys will learn to identify the highest-risk client profiles, including those with pending criminal charges, prior CIMTs, or extended absences, and to build pre-departure documentation strategies that account for the new enforcement climate. Attendees will leave with a practical framework for pre-travel risk assessment, Crim migration coordination protocols, and waiver-readiness checklists applicable to real client scenarios.
Kevin R. JohnsonRaquel E. AldanaAmagda Pérez 3:40 pm - 4:40 pm ESTThis session covers what happens after a returning green card holder is pulled into secondary inspection at a U.S. port of entry following the Supreme Court’s June 2026 decision in Blanche v. Lau. Attorneys will learn the procedural sequence from secondary inspection through deferred inspection appointments, including the status consequences of parole versus admission, Form I-407 pressure tactics, and how to prepare clients for the critical deferred inspection window. Attendees will leave with a working knowledge of the practitioner’s intervention points at each stage of post-Blanche port-of-entry enforcement.
