The 2025 Travel Ban

Understanding the Travel Ban and TPS Changes   Our U.S. immigration lawyers are actively assisting clients affected by recent travel restrictions and Temporary Protected Status (TPS) terminations. If you are a national of Burma (Myanmar), Venezuela, Haiti, or other designated countries, understanding these policy changes is critical to maintaining your legal status in the United States.      What Is at Stake: The Unlawful Presence Penalty   If your immigration status depends on TPS, a pending asylum case, OPT, or another temporary visa, failing to maintain lawful status can trigger severe penalties:   3-year bar: For 180+ days of unlawful presence   10-year bar: For 365+ days of unlawful presence   These bars are codified under INA § 212(a)(9)(B) and prevent you from reentering the United States for the specified period.
