That total quadruples the prior0:07annual pace, and the rate is still0:09accelerating month by month. In 2024,0:12about 40,000 visas were revoked. In0:152025, more than 100,000 were cancelled,0:18averaging about 8,000 every month,0:20rising to more than 10,000 a month in0:222026. The increase is driven by a new0:25continuous vetting system now screening0:27about 55 million foreign nationals who0:29hold US visas for alleged crimes, visa0:32violations, fraud, and national security0:34concerns. For students, workers,0:36tourists, and families, a revocation0:38means immediate loss of legal entry,0:40interrupted studies and jobs, and0:42separated families, often with limited0:43warning. The breakdown by category has0:45not been disclosed, so it remains0:47unclear how many revocations stem from0:49criminal allegations versus technical0:51visa violations, fraud, or security0:54flags.
