FASEB Opposes DHS Proposal to Eliminate Duration of Status for F and J Visas
Friday, October 3, 2025On September 26, FASEB submitted comments opposing a Department of Homeland Security (DHS) proposal that would replace "duration of status" admissions for F and J visa holders with a fixed four-year period. FASEB warned that the rule would create unnecessary administrative and financial burdens for current international scholars, discourage rising global talent from pursuing training in the U.S., and ultimately weaken the STEM workforce at a time of growing national demand for highly trained researchers.
