October 22, 20262026.10.22 Reported: Omar Case Could Hinge on Her Birth Date, but She Says No Records Exist - The New York Times
The New York Times reports that the Department of Justice investigation into Rep. Omar's immigration history hinges on her date of birth. Rep. Omar obtained derivative citizenship as a minor. However, members of the Trump administration assert that Rep. Omar was 18 when she became a citizen and ineligible for derivative citizenship. Proving Rep. Omar's age may be difficult given that irrefutable records of her date of birth are unavailable.

October 29, 20262026.10.29 Reported: Ilhan Omar Investigation Involves New Scrutiny of Long-Disputed Marriage - NYT
The New York Times reports that the federal investigation into Rep. Omar's immigration history includes renewed scrutiny of her 2009 marriage to a British citizen suspected of being her brother. Federal agents investigated the marriage in 2016 and found some evidence of fraud, but prosecutors declined to pursue charges because the five-year statute of limitations had expired. The Trump administration may seek to use the marriage as evidence in a broader immigration fraud case that Homeland Security Secretary Markwayne Mullin has said could lead to Omar's deportation.
