On November 23rd, President Donald Trump issued a new temporary rule to pilot a program that would require tourist and business travelers from 24 countries — mostly in Africa — to pay a bond as much as $15,000.

This rule targets nationals from countries who hold high rates of visa overstays, incentivizing them to return home on time, to avoid penalization.

Erickson Immigration group Attorney, Krystal Kirst dissects this ruling, its purpose, and the potential impact it may have on foreign nationals in the coming months.
