Visa Issuance and Admission for Certain Nonimmigrants with HIV - New Rules Proposed
On November 6, 2007, the Department of Homeland Security issued a Notice of Proposed Rulemaking by which it proposes to amend regulations to allow for short-term, nonimmigrant visas and temporary admission for foreign nationals who are presently inadmissible to the United States because they are HIV positive.
The changes would provide for a more streamlined process by which such nonimmigrants could enter the U.S. as a visitor for either business or pleasure for up to 30 days and subject to certain conditions as stated in the proposed rule.
Comments by the public to the proposed new rules are due by December 6, 2007.
