Could Elon Musk Be Deported For Immigration Violation?


Elon Musk is facing immigration problems for allegedly working in America without an employment visa and could arguably be deported, a legal expert
told Newsweek.

On October 26, The Washington Post alleged that Musk had worked illegally
in the U.S, citing "former business associates, court records and company documents."

Stephen Yale-Loehr, a professor at Cornell Law School and faculty
director of its Immigration Law and Policy Program, told Newsweek that
Musk could be in legal trouble for his alleged immigration violation.

"Working when not authorized is a clear violation of immigration law and
would make Mr. Musk deportable," said Stephen Yale-Loehr, an immigration
law professor at Cornell. "Moreover, if he failed to mention his illegal
work when he applied for naturalization, his citizenship theoretically
could be revoked." Yale-Loehr said.

Newsweek sought email comment from Musk's attorney and from Musk's
company, X, on Friday.

According to The Post, Musk's immigration issues were so serious that
investors refused to give him millions of dollars unless he sorted out
his immigration status within 45 days. A member of the board of his
previous company told The Post that Musk's immigration status in the
1990s was "not what it should be."

Musk, who is from South Africa, has denied the allegations and said he
never violated U.S immigration law.

The owner of X, formerly Twitter, has used the platform to criticize
illegal immigration in the U.S. Musk is also a keen supporter of Donald Trump—who has vowed to carry out the largest mass deportation program in
U.S. history—and has been giving away $1 million a day to individual
voters in key swing states. The voters are eligible for the lottery if
they sign Musk's petition in support of the First and Second Amendment.

The BBC reported on Thursday that, since July, Musk has posted at least
22 times about voters being "imported" from abroad. On October 20, he
wrote: "Triple digit increases of illegals in swing states over the past
4 years. Voter importation at an unprecedented scale!"

On Thursday, an opinion article on the website of Rolling Stone magazine claimed that Musk "hammers the theme of border security while evading
questions on how he came to be a U.S. citizen."

The Post alleges that in 1995, Musk was admitted to Stanford University's graduate school but didn't enroll in classes. He instead used the student
visa to stay in the U.S. and work on what would eventually become Zip2,
Musk's online business directory. The Post also alleges that in 1996,
investors made a funding agreement contingent on Musk obtaining
permission to work in the U.S. within 45 days. Zip2 board member Derek
Proudian told the newspaper that Musk's immigration status was "not what
it should be."

Musk received U.S work authorization in 1997 and became a U.S citizen in
2002.

David Bredin, a New York immigration attorney with more than 20 years experience, told Newsweek on Friday that there was no chance that Musk
would be deported for any alleged violation.

"In my opinion unless there was fraud in obtaining his status there is no chance of his citizenship been revoked."

"Not alone would it risk wrecking the U.S. economy, it would be a massive
mess for USCIS [U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services]. When a person
comes to the citizenship stage, everything is vetted. Anything he may
have done, would have been looked at and seen as a nonstarter," he said.
