DHS has announced that it will begin screening the social media of noncitizens as grounds for denying immigration benefit requests on the basis of antisemitic activity. This policy will impact individuals applying for green cards, foreign students, and individuals affiliated with educational institutions linked to antisemitic activity.

In recent days, the visas of international students have been revoked without notice at colleges and universities across the country. International students should check with the Designated School Official (DSO) at their school to review their SEVIS record and ensure that their student status has not been impacted.
