A federal court in Massachusetts has postponed the Department of Homeland Security rule that would have ended 'duration of status' admissions for F, J, and I nonimmigrants, originally scheduled to take effect September 15, 2026.

Proposed Rule Would Eliminate The 60-Day Grace Period For Many Temporary Work Visa Categories

The Department of Homeland Security has proposed eliminating the 60-day grace period that currently allows workers in H-1B, L-1, O-1, E, and TN visa categories to remain in the United States after their employment ends.
