Dear Friend,
Our team is analyzing all the fine print as we speak. Here's what we know right now:
*
On
January
31,
2020,
President
Trump
signed
a
presidential
proclamation
which
expands
the
Muslim
Ban
to
include
six
additional
countries:
Burma,
Eritrea,
Kyrgyzstan,
Nigeria,
Sudan
and
Tanzania
.
Today’s
proclamation
maintains
the
original
restrictions
for
Iran,
Libya,
Syria,
Somalia,
Yemen,
North
Korea
and
Venezuela
under
Presidential
Proclamation
9645
from
2017.
*
Today’s
proclamation
states
that
the
United
States
will
suspend
issuance
of
all
immigrant
visas
for
individuals
from
Eritrea,
Kyrgyzstan,
Myanmar
(Burma),
and
Nigeria,
as
well
as
diversity
visas
for
individuals
from
Sudan
and
Tanzania.
*
The
proclamation
will
not
apply
to
non-immigrant
visas
,
which
are
typically
issued
to
tourists,
visitors
and
students.
Instead,
it
targets
individuals
who
use
immigrant
visas
to
keep
their
families
together
here
in
the
United
States.
*
Any
visas
granted
before
the
proclamation’s
effective
date,
February
22,
2020,
will
be
honored
by
the
United
States.
Individuals
with
valid
visas
issued
before
that
date
should
not
be
affected
when
traveling
to
the
United
States.
