On Friday, federal authorities ordered Nicole Micheroni to leave the country within seven days.

Micheroni — a 40-year-old U.S. citizen, immigration attorney and Massachusetts resident — told MSNBC that as of Tuesday, she has heard nothing from the Department of Homeland Security, which she believes mistakenly sent the notice that told her “it is time for you to leave the United States.”

“The process is a mess right now,” she said. “DHS is not being careful.”

"If you do not deport the United States immediately you will be subject to potential law enforcement actions that will result in your removal from the United States," the email says.
