US TIGHTENS VISA RULES; SINGLE ENTRY, ONLY VALID FOR 90 DAY PERIOD; OLD RULES NO LONGER IN FORCE

Issued by the White House

There has been a new decree from President Donald Trump: In addition to imposing a complete ban on Caribbean nationals emigrating to the United States, from the five CBI Eastern Caribbean states, America has now placed severe limitations on the issuance of visitor visas for citizens of ANTIGUA AND BARBUDA, and the COMMONWEALTH OF DOMINICA. Only single entry visas will be granted for nationals from those countries, and they will be valid for 90 days. The prior 10 year, multiple entry visas will not longer be issued, due to what is stated was widespread abuse of that privilege. Visas for St. Kitts, St. Lucia and other Eastern Caribbean states remain paused at this time

The grounds for all these restrictions, which was stated in the Presidential Action, is the Citizenship by Investment (CBI) passport sales programs being operated by the five Eastern Caribbean States.
