Eliminating the Discretionary 60-day Grace Period

26 organizations filed 31 public comments on Eliminating the Discretionary 60-day Grace Period, at the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services. The comment window closes in 5d.

Abstract

The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) proposes to remove regulations at 8 CFR 214.1(l)(2) to restore its previous and long-standing policy of not providing aliens in certain nonimmigrant classifications (and their dependents) with an up to 60-day grace period upon cessation of employment prior to the expiration of the alien’s authorized period of stay. This proposal restores a direct relationship between an alien’s nonimmigrant status and the specific employment or activity that formed the basis of his or her admission or grant of status in the United States and reduces administrative burden.
