The US will expand social media review for granting other visas

The United States Department of State is expanding its social media vetting procedures to include additional categories of visa applicants. This policy adjustment is part of a broader effort to enhance the evaluation process for foreign nationals seeking entry into the country.

The initiative was revealed through an internal memorandum obtained by media reporting. By incorporating social media review into the screening for new visa types, the government aims to strengthen its assessment criteria for prospective travelers and immigrants.
