What’s Happening

On September 18, 2026, the U.S. Department of State announced that, effective October 1, 2026, it will expand its online presence review process to include TN, TD, and I nonimmigrant visa applicants. The expansion adds these classifications to the growing list of visa categories subject to enhanced screening and vetting during consular visa adjudications.

The new requirements build upon existing online presence review procedures that already apply to several other nonimmigrant visa categories, including F, M, J, H-1B, H-4, and certain additional classifications.
