That was my speculation yesterday.  I was a little surprised he didn’t.

Just a hunch. But i have a feeling they are separating them out IE one for Immigrants one for NIV Workers, in order to have a higher chance of them sticking in case of legal action. IE if it was consolidated it would be easier to stop it with a single suit. But who knows... we shall see

No, travel restrictions are a separate issue.

So you are exempt from the entry restriction but you wouldnt be allowed to enter because youre from the schengen area? I dont understand that tbh.

So despite my valid visa, I wouldnt be allowed to enter because im from the schengen area..

Whats the point then?

You can go somewhere else for 2 weeks and then enter the US.

When the Shengen Coronavirus restrictions are lifted, you will be able to enter. It is a different order affecting that aspect.

1) If you are exempt from the travel restrictions (i.e. a spouse of a USC) then you are fine already. idk your case.

2) You can travel to a area that is not covered for 14 days, then come to the US.

This is very niche and has no reason to be affected by the EO.

Thank you so much for that link. It appears he would be classified as my immediate relative and therefore not effected by the EO.

PLEASE can someone answer this... I am a US citizen, I am planning to have my wedding and legal ceremony at the end of this year in the UK (assuming things clear up by then)... can we file for the spouse visa ??!

You cannot file any immigrant petition until you're married.  The EO is a 60 day document.  By the end of the year, we may have a lame duck administration anyway.

So if I’m reading this right there is no ban on Non-Immigrant Visas. That would include a K visa. More specifically a K1 visa. So the Fiancée comes on a Non Immigrant VISA. Then gets married to the US citizen. Then they would be exempt from the Green Card Ban

Yes. You become a spouse of a USC, so that automatically makes you exempt. 
Note that only a US citizen can petition for a fiancé, a LPR can’t.

Nigeria will always accept you..we accept everything and they’re not on the travel ban

Nope Nigeria has travel restriction in place for most european countries

Posting again - Is L1 visa holder allowed back in the country per the EO as K1s are? A bit confusing the way it's written in Section 2 - any input would be appreciated

L-1 is not impacted by this EO.

They may be impacted by a future one that is considered. If possible, best thing is to enter the US and stay there until that is released and confirmed ok.
