This suspension includes Employment Authorization Document (EAD) renewals and Optional Practical Training (OPT) for students, leaving many Iranian doctors, researchers, and students at risk of losing their immigration status and being forced to return to unsafe conditions in Iran.
Key Details:
- Effective Date: December 2, 2025
- Impacted Benefits: All EAD renewals and OPT applications for Iranian nationals
- Consequences: Many Iranians may fall out of status and face deportation
- Public Response: Protests have emerged across the U.S. calling for the Biden administration to lift the freeze
