Fragomen invites you to join us for an upcoming webcast where we will delve into the latest developments surrounding the U.S. Department of State's Domestic Visa Renewal Pilot Program. Attendees will gain insights into the program, potential eligibility criteria, and strategic considerations for navigating this unique opportunity.

In our December 20, 2023 Immigration Alert, we provided an overview of the program's parameters. Of particular note is the "first-come, first-served" nature of the program, emphasizing the urgency for clear guidance. While there are still some uncertainties surrounding the government's process, Fragomen continues to stay abreast of developments in real time to provide you with guidance. 

This webcast will update you on the following elements:

  • Overview of the Domestic Visa Renewal Pilot Program
  • Summary of program parameters
  • Uncertainties and questions surrounding the process
  • Potential eligibility criteria for employees
  • Strategic considerations for your company
  • How Fragomen can help

We look forward to your participation and a fruitful discussion, and encourage you to submit your questions in advance via the registration form.
