US Revokes Over 100,000 Visas in 2025 Amid Expanded Immigration Enforcement

Since President Donald Trump took office in 2025, the US State Department has revoked over 100,000 visas, including approximately 8,000 student and 2,500 specialised work visas. This marks more than double the cancellations in 2024. The revocations target foreign nationals involved in criminal activities such as overstays, driving under the influence, assault, theft, drug offenses, and child abuse. The administration has intensified immigration enforcement through expanded screening, continuous monitoring, and stricter visa vetting policies, aiming to enhance national security and public safety.
