Victor Taelin denied US entry at SF, visa revoked, HOC plans in disarray
khademinori · x · 2026-10-12
Victor Taelin of Higher Order Co. arrived in San Francisco only to have his visa revoked at immigration — exhausted from travel, a hospital visit, and migraines, he says he fumbled the officer's questions and was given two weeks to leave.
The revocation derails a slate of scheduled meetings and soft commitments for HOC, all already paid for. He plans to possibly refund HOC, move conversations to calls, and has spawned "a fleet of agents" to investigate recourse options.
