US Court Blocks Trump Administration Rule Limiting Stay Periods for International Students and Journalists

A U.S. court has put the brakes on the implementation of a new immigration rule by the Trump administration that sought to limit the period of stay for international students and journalists.

In a lawsuit filed by educational and media organizations against the Department of Homeland Security, the U.S. District Court for the District of Massachusetts ordered a nationwide halt to the new regulation, which was scheduled to take effect on the 15th, local time.

Previously, the U.S. Department of Homeland Security announced it would abolish the "duration of status" system that had been in place for over 40 years and cap the stay period at a maximum of four years for international students and 240 days for journalists.
