Writer Yiyun Li’s Petition for Residency Denied on Appeal
02/03/2006
Chinese-born
fiction writer Yiyun Li’s petition for permanent residency in the
United States on the grounds of “extraordinary ability in the arts” has
been denied on appeal, most likely because a substantial portion of her literary achievements occurred after she filed the petition for permanent residency. She intends to re-file her case.
