This law course provides a comprehensive analysis of travel restrictions for individuals on non-immigrant visas in the United States. Given the complexity of U.S. immigration laws, visa holders must understand the legal limitations, potential risks, and compliance measures associated with travel. This course delves into the regulations governing travel for various visa categories, including B-1/B-2 (visitor visas), F-1 (student visas), H-1B (specialty occupation workers), L-1 (intracompany transferees), O-1 (extraordinary ability visas), and others. Participants will explore common pitfalls, legal interpretations, border control procedures, and strategies to ensure uninterrupted legal status.
The course emphasizes practical applications, covering administrative interpretations, USCIS (United States Citizenship and Immigration Services) policies, and CBP (Customs and Border Protection) enforcement trends. It also discusses potential consequences of violating travel restrictions, including visa revocation, unlawful presence, and re-entry bans.
