The Rumors Are False. There is No Expansion of Travel Ban to Other Countries.

“Fake news” has been circulating that the travel ban and visa revocations have been or will be expanded to other countries. In response to these rumors, the Department of State (DOS) recently told the American Immigration Lawyers Association (AILA) that there are NO current plans to add other countries to travel ban or visa restrictions in the Executive Order entitled, “Protecting the Nation From Foreign Terrorist Entry into the United States.”

According to AILA, ” DOS confirmed that there is no information that supports such a rumor and asked that AILA members help end the spread of this false information.”
