The expanded U.S. travel ban is changing who can enter the U.S. or obtain visas. These changes could affect families, workers, and travelers worldwide.
On December 16, 2025, at 7:00 PM EST, Atty. Lilian Chukwurah of Lilly Legal explains the expanded travel ban, which covers additional African, Middle Eastern, and Southeast Asian countries under the Trump administration. Full and partial bans now affect numerous nations, including Burkina Faso, Laos, Mali, Niger, Sierra Leone, South Sudan, Syria, Palestine, Angola, and Nigeria.
Atty. Chukwurah explains these changes, including the removal of exemptions for immediate relatives of U.S. citizens. She shows how the bans limit non-immigrant visas and, as of January 1, 2026, those outside the United States without a visa. Understand these rules to prevent denials, delays, or family separation.

A new USCIS policy change is creating delays, uncertainty, and serious consequences for immigrants from certain countries. If you or a loved one is affected, this update is critical.
On December 16, 2025, at 7:00 PM EST, Atty. Lilian Chukwurah of Lilly Legal breaks down the latest USCIS policy memo issued on December 2, 2025. The memo impacts applicants from 19 high-risk countries, including Afghanistan, Burma, and Venezuela, and affects a wide range of immigration applications. The policy places an indefinite hold on certain cases, requires mandatory interviews for all applicants, and introduces enhanced security screenings. USCIS is also reviewing past approvals for individuals who entered the U.S. after January 20, 2021, from these countries.
These changes have led to significant delays and uncertainty, even for long-term residents and individuals with previously approved cases. Asylum applications are currently on hold, and USCIS has warned that premium processing cannot be used to bypass these new restrictions. Atty. Chukwurah explains what this means in practice, how to manage expectations, and why staying informed and cautious is more important than ever.
