Possible Immigration Landscape Post-January 2021
January 22, 2021 at 12:00 pm EST
What will be the immigration landscape post-January 2021?
Mo Syed will share his immigration practice and policy forecast, as they pertain to various visa categories: business, employment, investment and family.
The discussion will include:
- Will there be better management of COVID-19 related challenges (embassy closures and processing within the United States)?
- Revocation of proclamations such as, the Muslim Ban and the Asylum Ban
- Revocation of the bans on H-1B, L, J1 visas and immigrant visa petitions
- Any more midnight rulemaking by the outgoing administration (prevailing wage hike in H1B and PERM green card cases)
- Litigation involving DACA, TPS and Public Charge Rule
- The Biden administration has promised a Legalization Bill in first 100 days. How will control of the Senate impact this?
- Will there be a shift away from detention and deportation and increased staff allocation to processing benefits?
- Will United States immigration policy reflect the core American value of being a welcoming society or will it remain based on fear of the other?
This webinar is free and open to all licensed attorneys.
