US Green Card Applicants Required to Apply Abroad
The US Department of Homeland Security (DHS) has announced that foreign nationals seeking to obtain a green card will now be required to apply for the visa abroad, rather than in the United States. This change is part of an effort by the Trump administration to streamline the immigration process.
According to DHS officials, this new policy will require applicants to return to their home countries to submit their applications, which will then be processed and approved before they can enter the US on a green card. The exact details of the policy are still unclear, but it is expected that this change will significantly impact the number of foreign nationals who can obtain a green card in the US.
The new policy has sparked concern among immigration advocates and experts, who warn that it could lead to confusion and delays for applicants. Some have also expressed worry about the potential impact on families and individuals who rely on the green card process to maintain their status in the US.
The exact number of people affected by this change is not yet known, but officials estimate that hundreds of thousands of foreign nationals may be impacted. The policy change is expected to take effect soon, although a specific date has not been announced.
