DHS appeals ruling blocking four-year cap on student visas
Original: DHS appeals decision blocking 4-year cap on student visas
The Department of Homeland Security has filed an appeal against a court decision that blocked its plan to impose a fixed four-year limit on student visas. The policy, championed by the Trump administration, would have replaced the current duration-of-status system with hard time limits for international students, prompting lawsuits from universities and immigrant rights groups. The appeal keeps the legal fight over the rule alive.
Why now: The appeal advances a high-stakes policy fight over international students' rights to stay in the US, affecting universities and visa holders.
