On January 28, 2017, President Trump signed an executive order that, for 90 days, effectively suspends entry into the United States by non-immigrant foreign nationals from the following nations: Iran, Iraq, Libya, Somalia, Sudan, Syria, and Yemen. Though limited exceptions were set forth in the executive order, F-1 student visa holders, B-1/B-2 visitors鈥 visas, and temporary work visas were not among them.
As such, 快猫成版视频 students and employees who are in the United States on a non-immigrant visa should refrain from travel outside of the United States if you intend to return while the re-entry restriction is in effect.
