Privacy settings to ‘public’: Trump tightens H-1B screening; social media checks from December 15
The Trump administration announced on Sunday that starting December 15, enhanced screening and social media vetting will be implemented for all H-1B visa applicants and their H-4 dependents in the United States, extending measures already in place for students and exchange visitors.
The State Department issued a new directive requiring all H-1B applicants and their H-4 dependent visa holders to make their social media profiles public for review during the vetting process.
