H-1B Professionals Prepare for ICE Checks in US

Some people on H-1B visas, which allow them to work in the U.S., are worried about unexpected checks by ICE, the immigration police.

Because of this, many are carrying their passports and approval documents as a safety measure.

This comes after a post on social media about how foreign workers are staying prepared.

Although it's not a law to carry original documents everywhere, many people find that having copies of their documents helps them feel more secure.

People have shared advice, like keeping copies of important documents in cars or on phones.

Some people are not worried, saying that there have been no changes for legal immigrants.
