COVID-19 Immigration Info + Resources

Supporting our artist community is at the heart of what we do. Each day we’re going to be sharing some important tools, opportunities, and resources for artists on our blog. Follow along and reach out if you need additional support. 

Today we’re going to share more information and resources for immigrants:

Trump’s Executive order suspends entry for those of non-immigrant status for at least 60 days.

This affects foreign nationals who are outside the US. This does NOT apply to permanent residents or those seeking temporary work visas.

You are still table to file for visas through USCIS.gov

Regardless of your immigration status, there are resources and educational materials out there for you to empower yourself.
