New Restrictive Immigration Order On The Horizon

There is speculation that within the next few days or weeks, the Trump Administration will issue a new Executive Order that will impact certain nonimmigrant visa categories. Some reports have suggested that the L-1 and H-1B visa categories will be affected. However, at this point in time, nothing has been confirmed. What we do know is that there will be travel restrictions, but we do not know for certain which visa categories it will impact and whether those who already have valid visas will also be restricted from entering the U.S. Due to the uncertainty surrounding the new restrictions, we are recommending that nonimmigrant visa holders exercise utmost caution if they are considering international travel or are currently outside the U.S.
