After a legal settlement took place in the Federal Court, people who had denied the US visa after President Donald Trump’s first travel ban, can now apply for the visas, according to the report published in the BBC.
The government of US will now be personally contacting the people who had turned down on the borders after the executive order, which was published in January.
However, the resolution does not guarantee the confirmed visas for the applicants.

President Trump had signed the travel ban for seven Muslim countries, which received a large number of protests along with various legal challenges. Trump, then, had also defended the executive order by saying that it was not at all a “Muslim ban”.
The seven countries included in the travel ban are Iraq, Iran, Libya, Sudan, Somalia, Yemen and Syria. Iraq was later eliminated from the list.
A federal judge in Seattle has suspended the ban and had allowed the visitors to travel in the United States.
The new resolution, which was passed on Thursday, orders the government to act in “good faith” while granting the visas for new applicants after the processing of required legal paperwork.
