Join us for a Conversation and Information Session to discuss the latest immigration updates that negatively impact our international students, scholars and others in our immigrant communities.

In particular, we will focus on:

  • the drastic impact that the current administration’s changes to unlawful presence rules will have on F-1 and J-1 visa holders and their dependents
  • how proposed changes to the use of certain public benefits will impact individuals and their families on non-immigrant visa types  (such as F-1, J-1 and H-1 and their dependents)
  • the current state of DACA.
