DOS to Allow Certain Non-immigrant Visa Applicants to Proceed with Interviews

Following the United States Federal District Court for the Northern District of California issuing a narrow injunction against the United States Department of State, certain nonimmigrant visa applicants that were previously subjected to U.S. President Donald Trump’s immigration ban executive order will no longer be subjected to the executive order. Specifically, the injunction stops entry restrictions on any J-1, H-1B, H-2B or L-1 applicant that was either sponsored or petitioned by one of the plaintiffs in the law suit. The named plaintiffs include:

● National Association of Manufacturers;
● U.S. Chamber of Commerce;
● National Retail Federation;
● TechNet; and
● Intrax, Inc.

Eligible nonimmigrant visa applicants should remain cautious that the availability to process their visas may be limited as U.S. Embassies and Consulates remain unable to operate at full capacity due to the COVID-19 pandemic and specific in-country movement restrictions. Eligible nonimmigrant visa applicants may however request an emergency interview appointment by contacting the Embassy or Consulate where their nonimmigrant visa interview is scheduled.

Eligible nonimmigrant visa applicants in Asia are encouraged to contact us at info@enterlinepartners.com and speak with a U.S. immigration attorney in Ho Chi Minh City, Manila and Taipei.

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. For more information and to determine whether you are subject to this new policy, contact us at info@enterlinepartners.com.

Incoming Trump Administration Looks to Deport Migrants to Third-Party Countries

The incoming Trump administration is preparing a list of countries to which it may deport migrants if their home countries refuse to accept them, according to sources. These countries include Turks and Caicos, the Bahamas, Panama and Grenada. If implemented, it could result in thousands, if not hundreds of thousands of migrants being displaced in countries where they do not know anybody, do not speak the language nor have any connection to the culture. It also remains unclear that if deported to those third-party countries whether those newly arrived migrants would be legally allowed to work and remain in those countries. It is also unknown what kind of pressure – either economic or diplomatic – is being applied to force those countries to agree to accept certain migrants once President-elect Trump’s term begins on January 20, 2025. Migrants from Venezuela, Cuba, China, and other countries that have been reluctant to

What is CBP Preclearance?

CBP Preclearance refers to a program operated by the U.S. Customs and Border Protection (“CBP”) that allows U.S. bound travelers to complete immigration, customs, and agriculture inspections before departing for the United States, rather than upon arrival at a U.S. Port-of-Entry. This process occurs at designated preclearance locations outside the U.S., typically at foreign airports. Key Features of CBP Preclearance: CBP is continuously exploring opportunities to expand the preclearance program to additional international locations, aligning with its goal of improving travel efficiency while enhancing national security.
