The US plans to impose fixed-term limits on student visas, ending the open-ended “duration of status” system and creating new uncertainties for F-1 and J-1 holders

The US is set to overhaul student visas, moving away from the open-ended “duration of status” system toward fixed-term limits. Currently, F-1 and J-1 visa holders can remain in the country for the entirety of their programmes. The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) now plans to impose strict time limits, meaning students may need to renew visas mid-course — introducing uncertainty for those pursuing multi-year degrees or long-term research.

The US is set to overhaul student visas, moving away from the open-ended “duration of status” system toward fixed-term limits. Currently, F-1 and J-1 visa holders can remain in the country for the entirety of their programmes. The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) now plans to impose strict time limits, meaning students may need to renew visas mid-course — introducing uncertainty for those pursuing multi-year degrees or long-term research.

DHS submitted the draft rule on June 27. After clearing White House review, it is expected to be published in the Federal Register soon for public comment. The policy mirrors a 2020 Trump-era proposal that limited visas to two or four years depending on programme length or nationality. That earlier version was withdrawn by the Biden administration following widespread criticism.

Under the revived proposal, extensions will become necessary even before completing a degree. Exact time limits are not yet known. Once published, universities, consulates, and international student groups will have 30–60 days to submit feedback. DHS may revise the draft before releasing a final rule.

Why do you think so? I think that’s the biggest misconception we have. Federal government give 30-40 billions every year for each Ivy League and other T20 schools. When compared with Fed funds they receive the money international students bring in is nothing.

Universities increasing non us students % every year which is too bad

it is good... perpetual learners on F1 will end if they do not have funding. I heard students from M nations staying here perpetually on F1 then marrying US citizens after some years then participating in activities which are against the interests of USA.
