International students must leave the country says ICE

ICE tells students on visas they must leave US if schools go online-only Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) announced Monday that international students in the U.S. whose schools switch to online classes for the fall semester will have to leave the country or risk violating their visa status. Under the new rule, foreign nationals enrolled in U.S. educational institutions will have to leave the country unless part of their course load this fall is taken in-person. The Student and Exchange Visitor Program (SEVP) had allowed for foreign students to take their spring and summer 2020 courses online while remaining in the United States, in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. SEVP, the institution that sets the rules for student visas, is run by ICE, which is generally dedicated to immigration enforcement. In its announcement, SEVP said foreign students who do not transfer to in-person programs and remain in the United States while enrolled in online courses could face "immigration consequences including, but not limited to, the initiation of removal proceedings." Students taking in-person programs will be allowed to remain in the country, while schools with hybrid online/in-person courses will be required to certify their programs are not entirely online. Students in English language courses and certain students pursuing vocational degrees will not be allowed to take online courses. The move comes as international student enrollment has steadily decreased from its high point in the 2015-2016 school year, according to the Institute of International Education. International enrollment is down in every category — undergraduate, graduate and non-degree — with 269,383 enrolled in the 2018-2019 school year, compared with a high of 300,743 new students in 2015-2016. According to the Commerce Department, international students contributed $45 billion to the U.S. economy in 2018. |

Re: International students must leave the country says ICE
This is some fucked up shit. You can't just keep changing the rules like this during a pandemic. You bet the admin will get sued for not considering people that rely on this and countries that accept US students will also want to reciprocate on us. Miller is just out of control and power drunk. The dude just wants everybody out.

Re: International students must leave the country says ICE
They are just crazy. This makes no sense. They are literally just anti-foreigner at this point. These people are not technically immigrants. They are already here for education. By forcing them out of the country, businesses lose money because they usually spend thousands of dollars on housing, groceries, and others. This will have a lasting impact on the U.S. reputation even long after Trump is gone because it gives a strong impression that the U.S. is politically unreliable like many third-world countries when it comes to immigration and foreigners.

1: Illegal immigrants 2: Semi-legal immigrants (DACA, TPS, DED, etc) 3: Non-immigrant workers (H-4 EAD holders, H-1Bs, L visas, O visas, E visas, etc) 4: EB-5 investors 5: Non-IR, non-F2A green card applicants 6: F-1 students Like what's next? Parents of USCs? That's gonna get tied up in court for years because while yes, the government has a lot of discretion in who to admit turns out that courts will review cases regarding relatives of USCs as infringing upon the rights of the USC petitioner. Other than that, there's really nothing left to chip away at. I'm sure they're fucking up VAWA too, I've gotten worse cases than my own approved back during Obama and under Trump they gave me such a nonsense RFE that's not even funny. |
