The US State Department on June 28 ruled that people from Syria, Sudan, Somalia, Libya, Iran and Yemen, when applying for visas to the United States, must prove they have a close relationship with an individual or group. Officials in the US, Reuters reported.

This agency defines a close relationship that includes parents, spouses, children, sons-in-law, daughters-in-law, siblings, sibling and other relationships in the stepmother family or stepfather. Relationships that are not considered close include grandparents, grandchildren, aunts, uncles, cousins, cousins, fiancées, fiancés.

The rule states that any relationship with a US organization "must be formal, documented, ordinarily created rather than purportedly to circumvent executive orders," referring to the decree that President Donald Trump Signed March 6.

According to the regulations, "a worker who accepts a job offer from a US company or a speaker invited to speak in the United States" is not prohibited entry. However, only one hotel reservation in the United States will not be counted as having a real relationship with the US organization.

President Trump signed a ban on entry into force in March following the first decree in January stumbling into protests. The revised decree temporarily forbade refugees and citizens of six Islamic countries, including Iran, Syria, Sudan, Libya, Somalia and Yemen, to come to the United States.

The decree was blocked by federal judges, prompting the Trump administration to take the case to the Supreme Court. The US Supreme Court today agreed to review the suit in October and issued a ruling allowing the refugee to be banned from the United States within 120 days.
