Defining the Immigration Ban and the Implications

The current immigration climate is turbulent, to say the least. President Trump’s immigration ban is an unprecedented move that has, and will continue to, shape global opinion about the United States. One thing is for certain: in the coming months, US Immigration Bonds will answer the requests for immigration bonds in Miami, and also the same day release bonds, as much as we can.

We understand that immigrants are concerned with the policy changes. The immigration ban does not affect green card holders or immigrants from South American countries at this point. The issuing of immigration bonds and same day release bonds for detainees in South Florida will continue as usual.

Allow us to define the immigration ban and explain the executive order.

Executive Order Sub Heading: “Protecting the Nation from Foreign Terrorist Entry into the United States”

  • The immigration ban focuses on seven majority Muslim countries that are deemed as threats to the United States.
    • Iran
    • Iraq
    • Libya
    • Somalia
    • Sudan
    • Syria
    • Yemen

Who is Banned from Entry: “I hereby suspend entry into the United States, as immigrants and nonimmigrants, of such persons for 90 days…”

  • Immigrants, green card holders, and dual citizenship travelers from these countries are no longer allowed into the United States for 90 days after the immigration ban, signed on January 25.

New Refugee Policy: “Realignment of the US Refugee Admissions Program for Fiscal year 2017”

  • The immigration ban halts nearly all refugee admission for 120 days following the singing of the executive order on January 25. Additionally, all Syrian refugees are banned from this time forward.
  • In the future, refugees will only be admitted if their home countries have sufficient safeguards in place “to ensure the security and safeguarding of the United States”.

Though this immigration ban does not affect current detainees from any country not listed above, we understand your concerns. If you are worried about a loved one who has been detained by immigration services, please call US Immigration Bonds. Ask about our same day release immigration bonds.
