It’s a Wrap! Update on Immigration Trends and What’s Ahead in 2025 After the Presidential Election

The final session in our Business Immigration Series for 2024 will focus on what’s happened in business immigration over the past year, along with an outlook on things to expect in 2025. With the Trump presidency to return on January 20, 2025, and statements made during the election about immigration, we will discuss what to expect from the second Trump administration in 2025 and beyond. Faegre Drinker attorneys Beth Carlson, Roger Tsai, Helena Wasey Abebe and Sari Long will discuss temporary work visas, permanent residence and compliance issues specific to business immigration trends. They will provide practical advice and cover the following hot topics related to the Trump administration's return to the White House:

• Will we see a return of the Buy American and Hire American EO? How will this impact H-1B work visas, other temporary work visas and the permanent residence process?
• The election focused on border control and deportation. Will this affect individuals who may now be in a valid immigration status, such as DACA, TPS, etc.?
• Will there be a return to the travel bans highlighted under the first Trump administration?
• What about delayed visa processing at consulates and longer processing times at USCIS?
• What to expect for stricter scrutiny of all immigration applications at USCIS, the border and consulates?
• Other immigration compliance issues, such as more Form I-9 audits and ICE raids under a second Trump administration.
• Additional developments that are important to business immigration.
