USCIS Updating Policy to Protect Women’s Sports

Agency announcementPublished Aug 4, 2025

A USCIS announcement describes the agency's own action. Legal effect, and the detail of how it applies, usually arrives separately in the Federal Register or the USCIS Policy Manual.

What the document says

U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services is issuing guidance in the USCIS Policy Manual in alignment with Executive Order 14201, Keeping Men Out of Women’s Sports, which directs the Department of Homeland Security to develop policies to prevent the entry of male athletes seeking to compete in women’s sports.

Who the document names

The document does not name specific countries or visa categories in its scope language. Read the original to confirm whether it applies to a particular case.
