Announcement: Trump Administration Rescinds Policy on Foreign Students

The Trump Administration is rescinding its policy which would require foreign students to depart the United States if they are only taking classes online. The policy reversal came because of heavy criticism from both Republicans and Democrats who argued that the new rule would be disruptive to students and undermine the value of education.

The announcement was made by Federal Judge Allison Burroughs of the U.S. District Court of Massachusetts who commented that the government was setting aside it’s protocol even as COVID-19 cases across the United States continue to spike and colleges and universities begin to transition to online only classes for fall semester 2020.

It is unclear however whether the Trump Administration is abandoning its position or retreating and regrouping to take a different approach such as an executive order.

“Class A or B (TB) )…requires attn of USPHS at POE ” Annotation On Your U.S. Immigrant Visa

Please note that your immigrant visa has an annotation “Class A or B (TB)…requires attn of USPHS at POE.” This notation refers to a finding related to tuberculosis (“TB”), a communicable disease of public health significance. During the required medical examination, the panel physician assessed whether you may have Class A or Class B tuberculosis. Class A TB applies if you have active, infectious tuberculosis. If so, you are generally inadmissible to the United States until you have completed treatment and no longer pose a public health risk. Class B TB applies if you have a history of tuberculosis, evidence of latent TB infection, or findings suggestive of non-infectious TB that require further evaluation or follow-up. The annotation “requires attn of USPHS at POE” means that you must be referred to the U.S. Public Health Service (“USPHS”) at the U.S. port of entry for further medical review or instructions. Upon

What is Birthright Citizenship and Can Trump End It

Beginning in 2018, President Donald Trump voiced support for ending birthright citizenship. Following the 2024 election results, Trump has made several additional public comments about ending birthright citizenship. Or at least redefine it. This poses the question: “what is birthright citizenship and can Trump end it?” What is Birthright Citizenship? Following the American Civil War, Congress ratified the 13th, 14th and 15th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution. Specifically, the 14th Amendment, which was ratified in 1868, was enacted in part to ensure that former slaves and their descendants, who were part of the Confederacy, would be recognized as U.S. citizens. The 14th Amendment, with regards to citizenship, states the following: “All persons born or naturalized in the United States and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and the state wherein they reside.” In plain language, this means that anybody who is born within the United

USCIS Now Requires Certain Adjustment Of Status Applicants To Submit Medical Examination With Their Form I-485 Application

Effectively immediately, the United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (“USCIS”) will require certain applicants filing a Form I-485, Application to Register Permanent Residence or Adjust Status to submit a Form I-693, Report of Immigration Medical Examination and Vaccination Record with their Form I-485 Application. Applicants who are adjusting status within the United States are generally required to undergo a medical examination by a civil surgeon to show that they do not have any health conditions which would render them ineligible to immigrate. The USCIS has started this new policy change to reduce the number of Requests for Evidence that the agency issues before approving an applicant’s adjustment of status.
