Trump administration finalises overhaul of foreign journalists' visas, ends 'duration of status' system

The Trump administration has finalized a rule ending the 'duration of status' system for foreign journalists on I visas, replacing it with fixed-term admissions requiring periodic government review. Journalists will generally be admitted for 240 days, with exceptions for Chinese journalists limited to 90 days, and the policy is part of broader visa regulations affecting F, J, and I visa holders.
