    Trump Travel Ban: Visa applicants must prove "close" family/business ties
  • The White House has unveiled a new set of criteria for visa applicants from six predominantly Muslim countries and all refugees subject to President Donald Trump's travel ban.

    The new criteria requires applicants to have "close" family or business tie to America.

    This comes after a Supreme Court ruling to partially restore Trump's executive order which was suspended by lower courts.
