Travel Ban Goes into Effect – Prohibicion de viaje

The Travel Ban went into force at 8 pm on Thursday the 29th after the Supreme Court decided to allow parts of the ban to move forward . The ban affects residents of Iran, Libya, Somalia, Sudan, Syria, and Yemen.  It does not apply to anyone with “a credible claim of a bona fide relationship with a person or entity in the United States.” This is defined as close family (parents, spouses, children, adult children, son-in-law and daughter-in-laws, and siblings), green card holders, or students and workers with established jobs or educational places. Tourists and business travelers can only enter if they have a qualifying “bona fide relationship” in the US.
