The federal government is reversing the termination of legal status for international students after court challenges were filed across the U.S. Judges issued temporary orders restoring the students' records in a federal database maintained by ICE, which had been abruptly terminated without notification. ICE is manually restoring student status for those affected, pending the development of a new policy framework for SEVIS record terminations. The reversal will apply to all students in similar situations, not just those who filed lawsuits, and aims to address the confusion and disruption caused by the sudden terminations.
