Your world with Dr. Beatrice Hyppolite
Hello,
I am Dr. Marie Beatrice Hyppolite. I hold a doctorate in Health Science with emphasis on Global Health and master’s degree in social work. I have over 14 years of experience in the field of health and human services.
This podcast is primarily focused on mental health and the quality-of-life elements that affect it such as divorce, death, domestic violence, trauma, toxic relationships, and single parenthood to name a few. It is no secret that mental health challenges continue to profoundly impact modern society although not enough discussion is given due to stigma. Research has shown an increase of 25 % in mental health crises after COVID-19. It is important to have honest, uncomfortable conversations about mental health while being supportive. Although we are interdependent, change begins with the individual, hence “your world.”
I welcome you to join me on my journey and look forward to your responses.

Navigating Life Between Two States: Insurance and Residency Rules
Moving between states can create a tangle of challenges, especially when it comes to insurance and immigration laws. Lawyer Claudel Daniel brings her expertise to our latest episode, navigating the complexities that arise for those living in two states. You'll learn why it's critical to update your insurance coverage whenever you change your primary residence, as failing to do so could lead to unwelcome surprises during claims.
We explore real-life scenarios where individuals have faced legal repercussions due to misrepresenting their residency status, especially concerning school enrollment and accessing state resources. The conversation shifts to immigration status, particularly how these residential changes can trigger scrutiny regarding a person’s immigration standing. Lawyer Daniel emphasizes the importance of understanding local laws and the potential pitfalls that can arise, especially related to deportation issues.
In this episode, listeners will gain valuable insights into how to navigate the bureaucratic maze before it becomes overwhelming. We also tackle the realities of enforcement agencies like ICE, discussing the budget constraints and the often-great pressures they face. We urge everyone to be proactive in seeking legal help to clarify complicated situations.
Join us for this enlightening discussion, and don't forget to share, subscribe, and leave your feedback! Understanding the laws governing your situation can empower you to make informed decisions and mitigate risks. Your journey toward clarity starts now!
Hello everyone. I'm Dr Beatrice Ippolit and this is your World.
Speaker 2:We have to make sure that we have the right insurance. When you arrive in Miami and you live in Miami and you go to New York, you have to change your insurance. Miami to New York it's a different thing to go on vacation, but if you live in New York, automatically you can't change it. It's a fraud.
Speaker 1:If you have a fraud, it's a problem that you still have, which is not important, we always look for shortcuts, and there are shortcuts that can lead to problems, exactly because the best market, the best price, etc.
Speaker 2:It's true that we have to continue. We pass the money, we know, but we want to say that our problem is that it is there. So, even if we are already in a situation that is a little delicate, there is no reason to aggravate it by a problem that can be solved more or less easily.
Speaker 1:Because we don't have to worry about people's violations. Not too long ago, a few years ago, since I learned that if, for example, I lived in Brooklyn, and that even if you have a son or a parent who lives in Long Island, who has a better school, you don't have to raise your finger to tell them that you have used your son's address to put money in the school and that, despite the fact that your son has to pay taxes, the principal says that you will live in Long Island.
Speaker 2:Exactly because there are people who come from the United States, from other countries, who come here because they have laws and generally they respect the laws. When we are here we don't need to go to the political court, to enter the Supreme Court etc. To see who is in charge, who is not, who is not. But even if you do, you have to use the law to do it. If we talk about deportation, before we go back to the issue of schools, we have to respect the law In the school. They say that they are called school districts, so each area has a school district. Some are better, some are worse.
Speaker 2:If you live in an area, you want to take the state school or you want to live in a school district in the area you live in. If you want to take a private school, you can go to any school you want Because it's the money you pay. You can choose to go to any school, but you can't stop to say you live in Brooklyn because you were there and it's in the state school, the state school, and then you see it in the school, but it's private. You have to see it. It doesn't matter what it costs and most often if you choose a school, you have to order transportation, which is extremely difficult. In the state there are only two places in the district.
Speaker 2:So, Nyalaa, can we go back to the deportation issue?
Speaker 1:Yes, because there is a list of people who are qualified for deportation. There are serious felonies, drug crimes and crime of violence. Yeah, and that they are in prison to put pressure on people.
Speaker 2:Zamsa has to live in prison because you don't know how many people Zamsa has used to kill you with Zamsa.
Speaker 1:You don't know how many crimes he has committed with Zamsa, but you are the one who is going to pick him up in prison. And you are the one who is going to put him in jail to make a scheme for. Michel Ben. And then here is Zams. How old people live their whole lives.
Speaker 2:Before you become old, let me tell you something you have to be able to say that you are not old, that you are not even old, and to be able to make false pretenses. Because you put the good things to pretend that you are old, you don't necessarily know what is wrong with you.
Speaker 1:Because you are under pressure, because they are being disrespectful to them.
Speaker 2:Exactly so. Even that is a problem. I just wanted to add that.
Speaker 1:Yes, exactly, I myself have experienced this All the time. I have heard people who have been put in trouble or crimes involving people who drive. They say that they don't come here for real. They go to the motor vehicle where they apply for a license.
Speaker 2:They have to have a license and then after the license they can pass a test to get a state license, but the license has restrictions on it, for example, you have to drive to the hospital after 7 o'clock, or you have to drive to the hospital after 8 o'clock.
Speaker 1:Yes, and even if you drive, you have to have people who have a normal license to accompany you. That's where you even as if you take permission. You drive like it's nothing, or other side or in the other state in cold weather, as if we say, ah, we are not deprived, we are not deprived, but it is there, we are not deprived.
Speaker 2:When we arrive, we take a zip.
Speaker 1:When we arrive, it is there, we take a zip and if we can avoid this kind of problem, we can avoid it because we are there While I hit him on the leg. But here we are. I drove was hitting my legs. I saw that the driver had his license and that it would involve our accident Problem and then, when we got out of there, a big problem.
Speaker 2:To add to what you said, I think that we are all in the same problem. Earlier you talked about the signs of traffic, which is the offense that leads to traffic. For example, if you are cynical, don't get in there. If you don't turn left, don't turn right. Don't turn left, don't turn right. Respect the sign. If you have a speed limit, don't go beyond the limit. This is extremely important. If you have a speed limit of 55 miles per hour or 120, if you have a speed limit of 100 miles per hour, if you automatically go to 100 miles per hour.
Speaker 2:This is a big problem that we face. We are in a situation where we are not aware of the camera, we are not aware of the practice we are doing. So we think it is extremely important to let us come here to adapt to the situation we are in, to respect the laws we are in, to come and seek opportunities, to retain the opportunities we are seeking, and this is also to return to those opportunities that we have been looking for. And we will return to those who have come to Biden, those who have come to the party I have seen them those who have come to vote for the executive order of Biden or those who are sponsors. People are there to guide you, to help you, to help you do your job, to help you do this, to help you do that. You can ask people for information to guide you.
Speaker 1:And then there are espionage crimes, there are terrorist crimes. We already talked about crimes that have led to money. Look at the time we came. We met our friends. We met people who told us hey, I'm going to go to the side, I'm going to do a job that pays. We have to pay for our money. While our jobs are paid in 15 dollars, 20 dollars and so on, Our jobs are paid in 4,000 dollars a week. But, my friends, we don't use our money. We live in a country where we don't even to learn the same things as my parents, Not even electricity or plumbing. I want to learn to have a noble profession and when I go to work, I want to be able to get a job that pays me $4,000 a week.
Speaker 1:You have to ask questions, Because if someone wants to get a job that pays him $4,000 a week, I have to know what4,000 a week to get a good job? Because when they get a job they come and become a part of the drug movement or the illegal importation of weapons, and then the day they get a job, the police will come there to question you.
Speaker 2:You will be there and they will ask you to stop.
Speaker 1:You will not deport me, right? You will stop, you will be prosecuted, you will be put in prison and then you will be deported.
Speaker 2:Exactly. I would like to add something to what you said. To repeat it, I know that Trump is responsible for deportation and that he is responsible for immigration. Mr Holzman, that's what he says. He says that Konyala is the main criminal target Because they have a budget. I think that the budget it's not the last one, but recently it was about $8 billion, so there is no more money to do that and it's sure that the budget will increase because that's what worked when we went to the country.
Speaker 2:Okay, but what Mr Holzman said, he said that the red flag, when you say that there are no immigrants, it means that you consider the immigrants illegal.
Speaker 2:When you see one, you see the other. That means that if there are no other side and you don't go to the other side, there are people who are going to address you, etc. Every time you go there, you ask if they are going to tell anyone else, and everyone else is going to ask you if you are here legally or illegally, and Mr Dekla is the most frequent one to go to the other side. So that means that, even if we know that we are in a difficult situation, we don't have no interest in putting our heads in positions to force them to stop us. And when they stop they are going to make stupid names. If they stop in New York and then they land in New Orleans, they will not even know where they are. So that means that their system of employees who earn money from it let's say 10 to 12 people- In ICE's movement, how much money was spent on the organization of operations?
Speaker 1:So not only the deported people, but also ICE and the work they do. It's 8 billion dollars.
Speaker 2:Yes, and the people who have this budget, they mainly go with deportations that we have done through charter flights. That means that they have to spend a lot more money because there are other institutions that have collaborated with them. So that means that there are other groups that come to Konyala and keep in mind that there is no difference between the deport, difference between the deportation in Konyala compared to before, because it's not because you were deported before.
Speaker 1:Yes, you were on a ship. No, I left my ship.
Speaker 2:I left my ship earlier. What I want to make clear is that there is no difference. Long ago it was a charter, but now it's a military plane. It means that you have a lot of time to get on a plane, to get a ticket, to get a plane ticket to travel, to get off the plane. So you have to process everything, so you don't have to get on the plane right away. But if it's a military plane and the state deport them, you must pay them a lot of authorization to land on the plane.
Speaker 2:And that's why we have a little head-on relationship between President Trump and President Colombia. They say that there are no military planes that land illegally who have come to our country. No, we have to respect our rights. We have done it, we have accepted it, but we have done it in relation to people who have been accepted under the first government already, which is the government of Biden charter flights to respect our rights. To have deportations, to have immigration, it's normal. We have not said that in our country, but we have to accept it. And there are countries that have mental fortitude, that have the capacity to say no, it's not going to affect anyone. But there are other countries that are weak, that don't have the capacity to say no because the budget or the income depends on everything. So, consequently, this situation is going to play a role for us to be able to do it, for us to return to the deportation in 2021 and 2024,. The number of people arrested in ICE was 500,853.
Speaker 1:Is that in general or in AIC?
Speaker 2:No, not in AIC, but in general. The number of people who were deported during that period was 545,252. These are official numbers on ICE's website. In 2021, it was number of deported people. In 2021, it was 59,011 people. To give you an exact figure, in 2022, it was 72,177. And among those who were AIS members I don't know how many AIS members were, but in 2024, it was 271,444 people that the Biden government. This is a situation that started yesterday. This is a situation that started a long time ago. Deportations started to accelerate under President Obama's government. This is a situation that started yesterday, but we didn't have time to talk about it in front of the stage Because we didn't have a media show that accompanies them, because automatically Mr Oswald to do it. We laugh because he hits people's door. Who is the one who tells them that? Dr Phil, whom we know on television, who speaks about things philosophy, psychology, etc.
Speaker 2:He is the one who has the camera. He tells them we are not a media show. It is to create more stress, more panic, because there are people who may not need to panic. No, they don't need to panic. That's why, when I go to a person and I send a message to them. I tell them not to panic Because you know, even in situations that are legal, there is a limit to what you should do.
Speaker 1:But we can still reach that limit. It's legal it's legal, legal, but the noise that is heard in the street by Ahmed Daniel, who makes us believe that even the legal ones do not even have the right to contact a lawyer to be able to stand before a judge.
Speaker 2:Who is going to take that? That's true. We have to distinguish ourselves. To make things clear, you have the right to keep silence. We see a lot of movies, and movies are true. You have to decide that you don't speak. It's the lawyer who speaks, and if you are an absurd, you have to listen to the side that gives you good information.
Speaker 1:And you don't have to decide to fly. You have to go without leaving. You have to process it anyway.
Speaker 2:You have to process it. One. They can't fly, they can't go anywhere without a party. It's a process. It's a process One way or another. It's a process. It's like a community. For example, if you come here, you can't go anywhere, but you have to go to Burkina Faso, you have to go to South Africa, you have to go to Colombia, Ecuador. You have to go to school here. You have to go to school in the city of Tahiti.
Speaker 1:We are going to have a school in Martinique or in Saint-Vincent, we have to process, the people who live in the city. Saint-louis Charamette Ossé.
Speaker 2:We have to process them, to have a place to live in the city, to live in a country like this, we have to have a name, a name, an address, a person, etc. That's why we have to talk about the fact of BED. Currently, according to the figures, if I'm not mistaken, there are 34,000 cabins. That means that in the evening, when there are 34,000 people at the same time that are stopped, that are boycotted and that are sleeping Beyond 34,000, there is a problem. So it's a limiting factor, the same as in terms of the number of planes that are available to transport people to go there. There are a million people who are being transported at the same time, so that means that a lot of people are going there.
Speaker 2:That's why they keep talking about criminals who are being deported to the Mero, who are being killed, who are going to live, who are going to hit people. Those are people who are being searched. That makes me say, even if you don't know what you are talking about, if you don't know what you are doing, if you don't know what crime you are committing, if you don't know what illegal situation you are involved in, you have to stop for a moment, but you don't have to stop and put your hands up If you don't know what you are doing. You know who you are, so it means that this is an extremely important factor.
Speaker 1:And when you say that you don't know what you are doing, extremely important and during the 10 days that we have been in the country, sometimes it seems that we are not the ones who are in danger, but the people are the ones who are important, for the country.
Speaker 2:I will give you a good example. During the Aïtian period, we were in the village of Vécentpile. Do you have to pee or do you have to wash your hands? No, no, it's in the sense. You see it here, so we consider it as exposure. If you see someone who is there, who is here, but who flashes, etc. That's the only problem. So if you see a big car, who is going to drive a group of people? Who is going to drive a group of people? Who is going to wash their hands and pee, or at least that's it.
Speaker 1:I'm happy that people are talking about it Although I don't recognize people who don't paint but I'm happy that they are talking about it. I don't even think that I'm laughing, because I know that people are creating problems for themselves. When they come, they need to go and get their children out of prison and then, as they say, said the machine was working. They were still in danger. The machine was working, the police came. The police came and pulled the police out. They put their heads in position to stop them. People were standing up. It was a big mess. They came and said it's like they've raised me up.
Speaker 1:It's not easy, you understand. When people come here, they're on the street, they're on the front line. Here we're in the main square, but there are two people in the car and then we're talking about raising me up and the problem is that they've arrested me, they've deported me. Another thing, that's simple. It's not like I'm in public transportation. That's not comfortable. I don. I am not a person who is comfortable in public transportation. I am not a person who wants to take a train or a bus.
Speaker 1:I am not someone who wants to steal things or pretend that the driver is not for me If I am not a person who wants to talk to the driver. If they allow you to be on the bus, OK, but not to get on the bus without paying, not to get on the bus without paying, not to try to get a head start, Because our mentality, we don't use that expression, we don't get a head start. Here we get a head start, but we have a lot of problems.
Speaker 2:I think that this difference that Chosaako does it can win in the lives of those who follow it, and that's why I ask you to subscribe, like it's important for others to know, Because if we don't subscribe, we don't share, we don't know.
Speaker 1:Subscribe.
Speaker 2:Because often what happens? We think we've done a lot and that a lot can solve the problem. When we see people coming to our office, we don't talk about the office, we talk about the lawyer. We can't confront the judge to do what he wants. The system is not good because the lawyer can put his license in danger.
Speaker 1:But the judge doesn't even have time.
Speaker 2:No, but the judge doesn't even have time because the lawyer can't even take a chance in front of the judge. But he can't even go to court because the lawyer can't even take a chance in front of the judge, but even then they can't put a license. And most often, lawyers are the worst lawyers because they are not doing immigration, they take prison, they deport because they have done cases that no one has ever read. So if we know that we are not qualified for this, we have to find out who is the one who has the right to ask a lawyer for a consultation, who is the one who has the right to do this, who is the one who can solve this problem, but not by thinking that we are here, that we are not going to do this with Haiti, that we are going to pass the law on their side. Sometimes we have a file. I personally have met people who say I have a lawyer already. A lawyer is not enough, a lawyer is not enough, etc. Do you want to take a file? Most often, we find that when you arrive, it is not the lawyer who is the one who is in trouble. It is because immigration itself has its own limits. First of all, on a personal level, because we were not in question earlier. We ended up here. Maybe we are here in Nice. That's why we have a lot deportation cases, because immigration is fundamental to employ so many immigration judges who can allow everyone to be able to vote.
Speaker 2:So if you have a case where you apply for political asylum, it takes one year, two years, four years, five years or even a year and a half. Why do we have to wait? We have to find a way to get a job, we have to be in shape, we have to be legal in our country. But why do we have to wait? It's because we don't have enough judges, and when there are, there are some things that we have to do. It's to use expedited removal, which is the other aspect that we have.
Speaker 2:Why do we have two? If you want to get two years here, you can use this aspect. You can go to the point, you can go to the depot, you can process it quickly, you don't have to go to the judge. But if you get two years here, you can't go to the judge and go to the judge. You have to go to the judge and go to the judge. And here we are talking about the carbon issue, the issue of the available beds, mr Holtz able to get a job, has increased from 34,000 to 114,000. This means that there are more people who have the capacity to get a job.
Speaker 1:Daniel, you mentioned something important. You said that if I have two years, and it is mandatory that I go to court to be able to pass in front of a judge, if you are older than 2, years old, but if you are younger than 2 years old, will you?
Speaker 2:It's not that I'm a judge, but you don't have to force the judge to say that you can use the expedite removal.
Speaker 1:But if you are younger than 2 years old, you are at risk. You are at risk definitely To go to court even if you don't pass in front of a judge Definitively. But does that mean I have to contact a lawyer?
Speaker 2:You have to contact a lawyer. That's what we are proposing. We are taking steps to be careful about what we do. We are in a real situation. First, we have to go to Haiti. We have to get an identity. I will tell you something that makes me feel sad about our population. If someone comes here in Biden, he will have two years to expire. He will never be able to get his identity back. But when the situation comes to this point, it's not because of pressure, but because he has a warm head. He has a young mind that is ready to do what he wants.
Speaker 2:So what we know personally the people who come to the country to do social work, to do ID, to get benefits some of them are benefactors who say they want to take us because they say it's part of the program. If they want to do something outside of the program, we won't have it. But all those who are in the program, what can they do? It means that they are in the program. What did you do? You said you were in a situation where you had to do this More than two years.
Speaker 2:I was with Aïdio Always a name but if you have a lawyer that you have contacted to give advice, even if you know that you have to go. I have four lawyers, you stop. You have the right to keep silence. You don't have to answer. When you come, you say, okay, I will answer. You have to answer. When you are there, you will say, okay, I will not answer. You have to answer. We will stop to make a noise. You will not answer outside the presence of a lawyer. After you have become a lawyer, you have to go to the court and say there is no problem in fighting. People are forced to do it. There is a reason. So there is no reason to do a mass penance for Grand.
Speaker 1:Messie. Not only is there no reason to do a mass penance for Grand Messie, but in addition to the deportation because it is illegal, they have the charge that they put in their heads to resist arrest, and they have to forget all the things they have done. It's like the situation in the country is as simple as it seems, but here there are complications there are consequences.
Speaker 1:There are consequences and we have to address them accordingly. I would like to highlight something that was mentioned. For people who have been in the country for two years, whether they are old or young, the government, the administration, has given them a lot of opportunities for everyone to change their status from a humanitarian power to TPS.
Speaker 1:But we don't have anyone who is making you feel negligent for one reason or another and that someone says, oh no, I'm going to be there for another six months, six months for it to happen. But during that time someone says six months for it to happen. But they don't look at it like that. This type of money had a deadline. The deadline was to fill it from August 3rd to August 31st.
Speaker 2:From August 31st they did not have the right to apply for it.
Speaker 1:That's when they had the opportunity. Either they did not want to spend like that, or at least they did not have people to fill it, or they don't have people to pay for their services. That's the dilemma that we are facing. We are looking for people to apply for it and we have people who, unfortunately, despite the fact that TPS is not active yet and that people can't apply for, but they still continue to collect money from people to make the application for them, and that we think that people know that you have the opportunity to change your status or for a reason or for someone else who does not do it.
Speaker 1:It was wrong that we made you do it right.
Speaker 2:To add to what you said, there are institutions that are often paid to help people to make a series of papers, which is legal aid. Quite often, there are communities. There are lawyers in the community of Sao Joa who even have people who are in need. They are required to provide free hours to their lawyers. They have to get a new license and more than that. We have the Church which is a Catholic Church, a Charity Church or whatever the name of the institution is which offers immigration services.
Speaker 2:My friends, I have people who know it's not TikTok that, for the most part, sources us legal information. There are people who have information, who speak there, who don't have any knowledge in law. They are not able to go to the store, they are afraid of being accused, they fall because they need a click, they need to be arrested and then they are accused. If we see a good video that someone made, we can share it without any problem at all, and that's what makes the work that the judicial office does, which allows people to become aware that there are situations that are very simple, that can be avoided to prevent problems.
Speaker 1:Another thing that is really important and that I want to add to this motion even good videos that are shared by people. Validate those videos so that they know if or not they are going to the immigration website, because there is no information that we really need. That goes not just immigration.
