U.S. Federal District Court of Massachusetts said the US government has decided to withdraw new immigration regulations that cancel visas for international students who only take online lectures.

Federal district law says the US government has agreed to this with Harvard University and MIT.

When the US Department of Homeland Security's Immigration and Customs Enforcement Bureau announced its policy to revise the regulations, with the goal of canceling international student visas, which were only taken online on the 6th, Harvard and MIT responded by saying that it was unreasonable pressure to force face-to-face classes.

More than 200 U.S. universities filed opinions in court with Harvard and MIT, leading to fierce backlash, which eventually revoked the Trump administration.

The visa service of the US diplomatic mission, which had been suspended in the wake of Corona19, is expected to resume soon.

A US State Department spokesman said the resumption of routine visa services will be made in line with the State Department's plan to safely return foreign missions abroad.

However, there were no specific plans for when and where visa work would resume.

Even if the U.S. visa service resumes, all foreigners who have traveled to 26 European countries, including China and Iran, in the last two weeks, are still banned by President Trump's decree.
