00:55This video explores Trump's evolving immigration agenda and what's changing under his proposed
01:01policies, including how Australians could be affected, which visa categories are under
01:05renewed scrutiny, and the serious implications for dual citizens and green card holders.
01:11So watch till the end to understand how these shifts could directly impact your ability to
01:16study, work or live in the United States.
01:27Let's begin with Trump's immigration agenda.
01:31What's changing?
01:34Trump's team is signalling a dramatic return to America First policies.
01:38Proposed crackdowns include revoking work permits, tightening visa issuance and speeding up
01:44deportations, even for long-term temporary residents.
01:48This shift targets not only undocumented migrants, but also legal visa holders facing stricter compliance
01:55checks.
01:56Next, we explore how Australians could be affected.
02:06While Australians typically enjoy smoother visa processes via the E3 visa, concerns are growing.
02:14If blanket policies reduce visa approvals, even Australians may face longer wait times, higher
02:20rejection risks or additional documentation requirements, particularly for work and business travellers.
02:30Moving on to visa categories under scrutiny.
02:35Public and student visas such as H-1B, F-1 and even tourist visas B-1B-2 could be caught in
02:43broader crackdowns.
02:46Changes may include limited extensions, tighter eligibility and restrictions on dependents.
02:52Factors that could derail Australian professionals and families planning long-term stays.
03:01Then, we examine the implications for dual citizens and green card holders.
03:07Those holding dual citizenship or green cards may find renewal processes more complex.
03:14Immigration enforcement could increase audits and introduce new vetting protocols, especially
03:18for individuals from countries perceived as high-risk or politically sensitive.
03:24Finally, we wrap up with conclusion.
03:29The US immigration climate is shifting fast and Australians aren't immune.
03:35Whether you're planning to work, study or reunite with family, 2025 may demand more
03:41caution, compliance and clarity than ever before.
