The woman was allowed in the United States to the dying son, despite the ban Trump

By the evening of Tuesday, it became known that the US State Department still provided the mother of Yemen, whose 2-year-old son dies at Auckland Hospital, permission to travel to the United States. Earlier today we wrote that the immigration authorities didn't let a woman into california.

Shayma Svileh will be on time for the earliest flight from Egypt and should arrive in San Francisco on Wednesday evening, said Basim Elcarra, executive director of the head of the Sacramento Valley, quoted CNN. He also said that the money received through fundraising efforts would pay for the flight and the funeral of the boy when he was gone.

This became known after the boy’s father, Ali Hassan, appeared on CNN asking consular officials to speed up the processing of an application for a visa for his wife so that she could see her son for the last time.

22-year-old Hassan and his son Abdullah are US citizens, but Shayma lives in Egypt. Since she is from Yemen, she is forbidden to come to the United States in accordance with the travel ban issued by the Trump administration.

After obtaining permission, Swileh will enter the United States on an I-130 visa, which allows entry to close relatives of American citizens. Now the woman has already left the embassy and is preparing for the journey.

“Unfortunately, even despite this victory, it is still a loss. But at least she will be able to come to say goodbye, mourn her son with dignity and see how he is buried - maybe this will ease her pain a little,” Elkarra said.

"We just hope that she will be on time and see her son in his last hours."

Abdullah was born with a brain disease. In October, his father brought him to the United States for treatment. October 1 mother last saw the boy. Doctors told Hassan that patients such as his son usually stay on life support systems for two to three weeks, or a maximum of a month. This time has expired.

“She cries every single day. She wants to be close to her son,” Hasan said of his wife. “She just wants to see him and kiss him before he leaves this world.”

Although Trump's travel ban (announced as a means of preventing terrorists from entering the United States) caused legal problems, the executive order still restricts the entry of Yemen and six other countries into the country.

According to the State Department, consular officers may make exceptions when issuing a visa is in the national interest, the applicant does not pose a threat to national or public security for the United States, and the refusal to issue a visa may cause excessive difficulties.

State Department officials did not comment on the situation on Tuesday. On Monday, the department said it was “doing everything possible to facilitate the legal travel of foreign visitors,” but officials said the department would not comment on individual cases of visas.
