LOS ANGELES – A lawsuit filed against the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services alleges the agency discriminated against a Filipino couple when it denied the husband's legal residency because his wife had a sex change operation nearly 24 years ago.
Jiffy Javenella, 27, entered the country as a legal resident in 2001 as Donita Ganzon's fiance and applied for permanent resident status after marrying Ganzon later that year. But during interviews with immigration agents earlier this year, Ganzon, 58, revealed that she had undergone a male-to-female sex change operation in 1981.
Within three weeks, the agency denied Javenella's application for permanent residency and revoked his working papers, according to the couple's lawsuit filed in U.S. District Court on Monday.
The Department of Homeland Security said in a letter to Javenella explaining its decision that "currently, no federal statute or regulation addresses specifically the question whether someone born a man or a woman can surgically change his or her sex."

I was there a while back and, IMHO, Filipinas are the most beautiful women in the world.
The "javelin" is gone now.
Please respect this woman for what she now is -- a man with no penis.
You're mixing up Jiffy and his man-wife.
That guy should be hung!
I cannot understand who is who or who is what in this story.
Uh, the "freak" is aready in. The 27 yo guy was just trying to get in.
Yup...he picked a winner.
(1) Indonesian (2) Vietnamese (3) Filipina
Jiffy still has his javelin.
The photo helps. What a horrorshow.
I suspect there was some money in this for "Donita".
All quite nice!
What the heck is he smiling for???????????
He's thinking:
"Well...all I have to do is play nice with this old bag that used to have a d*ck...and in a few years I'm home free..."
HAHAHAHAhahah.... That was great!
I'm a 50 year old woman who was never a guy and doesn't want any 27 year old male!
What a coinky-dink.
How many "javelins" are intact between the both of them?
Please refrain from the personal want ads ;-)
Jiffy&Pop!
Evidently one javelin is hor d'combat.
Or something.
