Google and Apple reportedly warn employees on visas to avoid international travel

BI says it has viewed memos from BAL Immigration Law (which represents Google) and Fragomen (which represents Apple).

“Given the recent updates and the possibility of unpredictable, extended delays when returning to the U.S., we strongly recommend that employees without a valid H-1B visa stamp avoid international travel for now,” the Fragomen memo reportedly said.

A State Department spokesperson told BI that embassies are “now prioritizing thoroughly vetting each visa case above all else.”
