In the New York Post article titled "Donald Trump’s felony conviction could keep him from visiting certain countries," it is highlighted that as a convicted felon, the former President may encounter challenges traveling abroad.

moreHow & Why DHS Grants TPS Status
This designation from the United States is all in an effort to promote the importance of Ukraine immigrant protection and to respond to the ongoing war between Ukraine and Russia. A country is eligible for TPS status when the conditions in said country fall into one of three categories:

Extraordinary and temporary conditions
Environmental disasters
After the recent “premeditated and unprovoked attack on Ukraine” as described by Mayorkas, the Department of Homeland Security has made this designation decision based on these first two categories.

In the latest immigration development, on June 22, 2020, President Trump issued a Proclamation extending his previous ban on immigration into the United States and further added a ban on foreign workers. The new ban prevents foreign workers from coming to work in the United States or immigrate to the United States until December 31, 2020. This ban includes employment based immigrant visa’s (green cards filed from abroad) and temporary work visas. The temporary work visas included are H-1B, H-2B, J and L visas.

moreUnderstanding what the DACA Supreme Court decision might mean to you
Read this blog in Hebrew on YNET
On June 18, 2020, the US Supreme Court ruled against the Trump administration and its end to the DACA program. Chief Justice John Roberts delivered the majority opinion. The court decided that the Trump Administration did not follow proper legal procedures in cancelling the program. In rescinding the DACA Program, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) failed to consider all interests such as a broader renewal date or a more accommodating termination date. Given the mistakes in the cancelling of the program, the court ruled against the Trump administration. This allows the program to remain in place, at least, for now.
The DACA program has protected over 700,000 people in the United States. This court ruling does not mean the DACA program cannot be ended. It means that how the Trump Administration tried to terminate the program in 2017 was legally incorrect. However, the court decision does give the...

Many Liberians came to the United States from 1989 to 2003 legally when their country was suffering under civil war. They were here under temporary protection, which was scheduled to expire in 2020.

L-1 visas are typically issued for intracompany transfers. Employers can use this to transfer managers or...
moreWhat to know if the Government Shutdown affected your immigration hearing
During the recent government shutdown, countless offices and services across the U.S. were adversely affected. While the thousands of furloughed employees will get their back pay, not every aspect of the shutdown is quite as simple to make up for. One of the biggest consequences of the government shutdown is also one that is going to take literal years to compensate for. A vast majority of immigration hearings that had originally been scheduled to take place during the 35-day window between December 22, 2018, and January 25, 2019, ended up getting canceled. If you or someone you love had their immigration case affected by the shutdown, here’s what you should know:
IMMIGRATION HEARINGS AND THE SHUTDOWN
Now, first things first, we should clarify: when we say that the hearings were canceled, it’s just that. The immigration hearing was canceled, but the case itself was not. Not to worry, the estimated 60–80,000 immigration hearings that were canceled will still be heard! However, it...
moreImmigration updates: How the government shutdown affected Immigration
The government shutdown that started in December of last year caused a lot of chaos across the country. The biggest impact was undoubtedly felt by the estimated 800,000 federal workers who went without pay for a month and a half while the president battled with Congress over the nation’s budget. Beyond furloughed workers, though, nine major federal departments were also affected, largely because of lack of funding. The departments of Agriculture, Commerce, Homeland Security, Housing and Urban Development, Interior, Justice, State, Transportation, and the Treasury were all affected by the government shutdown.
The shutdown started because Congress did not approve the president’s requests for funding to build a border wall along the border with Mexico. Given that immigration was the central point of contention that initiated the shutdown, it makes sense that immigration would also be affected by the government shutdown. If you or a loved one is going through the immigration process, the first step you should take is to...
moreHow Immigration has been changing recently
If it seems like immigration concerns have been in the news a lot lately, you aren’t wrong. Since the last presidential election, and the lead-up to it, immigration has been an issue of major concern to politicians and the American people. As we reach the midpoint of the current presidential administration, it has become apparent that immigration law is going to continue to be a spotlight topic — and that key changes are occurring. Here’s what you need to know about how immigration has changed (and is changing) during the current presidential administration.
THE TRAVEL BAN
Immigration reform was one of the key stances the President spoke about throughout his campaign for office. In that vein, it makes perfect sense that one of his early acts in office was to enact a travel ban that focused on Muslim-majority countries — specifcially, Yemen, Libya, Somalia, Syria, and Iran. This wasn’t an immigration-specific policy, necessarily, but it did have the effect of seriously curtailing arrivals from those...
moreWhat is the difference between political asylum and Refugee status?
Over the centuries that the United States has been an established nation, it has been a land where people from all over the world travel to find relief from political and religious persecution and to partake in the freedoms offered by a democratic society. In many nations across the world, the government is corrupt and its citizens are riddled by fear and violence and are subjected to violations of basic human rights regularly without protection or consequences for the perpetrators. The United States and other democratic nations offer a reprieve from these unjust living conditions and offer hope for a better life. For those who are afraid of persecution in their home country, the United States offers protection by way of political asylum and refugee status. Join us in today’s post as we explore what these terms mean and how they may apply to you and your loved ones.
AMERICA — THE HOPE FOR A BETTER TOMORROW
The terms political asylum and refugee status are often used interchangeably. And, while they are similar, it...
moreProtective measures under immigration law: Part II
Welcome back to our discussion of the protective measures available to women under immigration law. In part one of this series, we discussed the reasons that special provisions were established for the female population as they are at an increased risk to be the victims of violence and trafficking, and are not afforded the same rights as male counterparts in most parts of the world. And, we also reviewed the U visa available to victims of certain crimes. Join us in part two of this two-part series as we continue the discussion and review T visas and VAWA visas.
REMOVING IMMIGRATION FROM AN ABUSER’S WEAPON CACHE
Visa for victims of human trafficking — T visa
The U visa and the T visa were both created as part of the Victims of Trafficking and Violence Protection Act of 2000. The U visa is for those people who have been victims of crimes and is restricted to 10,000 issued visas annually. The T visa is reserved...
moreProtective Measures Under Immigration Law: Part 1
Currently, there are more than 19 million immigrant women and girls living in the United States. Worldwide, violence against women is commonplace, as in many nations women are still considered to be inferior to men and in some countries, are still considered property. Globally, females are at an increased risk or violence, abuse, and trafficking. When women or families immigrate to the United States, immigration status can be used as leverage for perpetrators to inflict violence on women, knowing that their options for seeking help or retaliation are severely limited, especially if they are dependent on the relationship to gain citizenship as a family member to the abusive sponsor, or if they are here illegally.
Abusive spouses can exploit immigration status and the threat of deportation and loss of child custody if their victim seeks help or attempts to leave the situation. Additionally, many immigrants are made to feel as though the American justice system is against them or looking for a reason for deportation. It is for these reasons that immigrant women and girls are...
moreImmigration Waivers
There is a book full of reasons why you may not be able to apply for or renew a visa or green card — violated an immigration law, deportation, expired visa, or you were charged with a crime — and many people fear that this means the hope of obtaining naturalization is all but gone. However, immigration waivers exist to help qualifying immigrants to have this decision overturned. An immigration waiver is a legal pardon that may allow you to apply for and be approved for a visa, green card, or naturalization. Join us in today’s post as we discuss some of the specific waivers that are available.
NATURALIZATION IS NEVER OUT OF THE QUESTION
As with anything in life, naturalization as a legal US citizen is governed by clearly defined laws. However, just like every other law, exceptions may be granted on a case-by-case basis. Here are some of the specific waivers that you may be eligible for if your request for a visa, green card, or naturalization has been denied.
Waiver after removal
A waiver after removal is a waiver that is...
moreHow US Immigration Law has Evolved
The United States is a country that was founded by immigrants to a new land and has historically been a safe haven, the beacon of hope, for billions of people over the centuries as a place to find employment, freedom from persecution, and a new chance at life. From the “discovery” and claim of the Americas in 1492 to the nation’s inception as an established country — a declared emancipated from its overseas “owner” and foundation of an independent country — in 1776, it was a free-for-all type of border and coastline. People from all nations came to the Americas and set up their homes and families. It was not until 1819 that immigration became a legal point of contention and the first immigration legislation was passed. Since then, laws and legislation have changed and evolved significantly. Follow along in today’s post as we recap some of the highlights of these changes through the years.1819– Immigration Act of 1819 is enacted, which declared foreigners entering the United States as immigrants. Those entering the country has to supply information to government officials that...
