US Tightens Immigration Rules for Non-Citizens

The US has introduced new rules for people who are not US citizens, including those with Green Cards.

Starting December 26, 2025, everyone entering or leaving the US will have their photo taken, and some may also have their fingerprints or eye scans taken.

This includes children and older adults who were previously exempt.

The US will also pay extra attention to Green Card holders from 19 countries that the government considers a security risk.

These people may have to go through more interviews and checks.

Additionally, the US has paused reviewing applications for Green Cards, citizenship, and asylum from these 19 countries.

The rules are part of the Trump administration's efforts to make immigration stricter and ensure better security.
