Bernstein Shur publishes immigration policy update for employers and employees

Bernstein Shur said it published an immigration update by Michael Murray and Olivia Shaw on three developments: a September 14 district court order in Presidents’ Alliance v. DHS halting the proposed end of duration-of-status admission for F and J visa holders; the $100,000 H-1B entry fee announced September 18, not in effect after a circuit court denied a stay in State of California v. Mullin; and a DHS proposal to end the 60-day grace period for nonimmigrant workers.
