Immigration Lawyer John Khosravi breaks down the biggest overhaul to F-1 student visa rules in over 45 years, announced by the Department of Homeland Security and taking effect September 15, 2026. In this video, John covers the top 7 changes every current and future international student needs to know: the end of "Duration of Status," the new 4-year cap on stay, the shortened 30-day grace period, the shift to mandatory Form I-539 extensions, changes to OPT work permit filings, the new 24-month cap on language school programs, and tighter restrictions on changing schools or majors. If you're an F-1 student, plan to become one, or know someone who is, this is essential viewing before these rules reshape how student status works in the U.S. Note: this video is for general informational purposes only and is not a substitute for individualized legal advice.

The Australian government has once again raised visa application fees for international students, while maintaining lower charges for eligible Pacific Island and Timor-Leste applicants. The fee for the post-higher education visa, also known as the Temporary Graduate (subclass 485) visa, which allows international graduates to live and work in Australia for up to two years, has increased from $4,600 to $5,750. In 2024, the government announced that student visa fees would rise from $710 to $1,600. Since then, the fee has been increased further, from $1,600 to $2,000, and now to $2,500.

He also notes that while the Australian visa system is among the best in the world, there is room for improvement, particularly regarding a lack of transparency in student visa refusals.

The number of international students enrolled on masters by research (MRes) courses more than doubled in the year after the government introduced a ban on dependent visas for other courses, new figures revealed this week. Higher Education Statistics Agency (Hesa) data obtained by Times Higher Education show that there were 6,085 non-UK-domiciled students enrolled on MRes courses in the 2024-25 academic year – up from 2,485 in 2023-24.  This leaves the institutions behind such rises open to accusations of playing the system and using MRes courses as a way to circumvent the government's visa rules. On this episode of News Talks, Miranda Prynne speaks to Times Higher Education deputy news editor Helen Packer, who has been covering the story, to find out what lies behind the rising MRes numbers, what the institutions driving the growth have said and the reaction from politicians and other sector leaders.

As Italian citizenship by descent continues to change heading into 2026, many people are reassessing how they can legally live in Italy without relying on ancestry or jure sanguinis. Several residency based options already exist within Italian immigration law, including student visas, the Italian Golden Visa for investors, the digital nomad visa, the elective residency visa often associated with retirement, and residency rights connected to marriage to an Italian citizen, each with specific income, investment, or residency requirements. These pathways can allow individuals and families to establish lawful residence in Italy, progress toward permanent residency, and eventually qualify for Italian citizenship through naturalization after meeting long term residence rules. In this episode of the Italian Citizenship Podcast hosted by Italian attorney Marco Permunian and dual citizen expat podcaster Rafael Di Furia, we'll learn more about alternatives to Italian citizenship by descent and how residency based paths to citizenship in Italy work as 2026 approaches.For help with the Italian citizenship process and more information about Italian Citizenship Assistance visit ICA's website:https://ItalianCitizenshipAssistance.comTo contact Italian Attorney Marco Permunian and his team of dual-citizenship experts and attorneys you can use the contact form on the Italian Citizenship Assistance website:https://italiancitizenshipassistance.com/contact/To see more from Rafael Di Furia about life in Italy and life as a dual-citizen expat check out his YouTube channel and website:Http://YouTube.com/RafaelDiFuriaHttp://RafaelDiFuria.com#italiancitizenship #italianvisa #movetoitaly Topics & Timestamps:0:00 – Intro & Opening Thoughts0:45 – Understanding the Italian Student Visa3:22 – Can You Work on a Student Visa in Italy?3:53 – What Is Italy's “Golden” (Investor) Visa?5:23 – Investment Options Explained: Golden Visa7:11 – Italy's Digital Nomad Visa: Who Qualifies?8:56 – Elective Residency Visa: Is It Right for You?10:15 – New Rules for Family Members of ERV Applicants11:15 – Spouses of Italian Citizens: Your Options12:14 – Applying from Inside Italy as a Spouse13:33 – Italian Citizenship Through Naturalisation14:40 – Citizenship by Descent vs. Naturalisation15:41 – Closing Thoughts & Outro

Today's Headlines: Tensions appear to be rising between Trump and Putin, with Trump acknowledging for the first time that Putin may not want peace in Ukraine. Trump warned that Putin is “playing with fire,” prompting a veiled threat from a top Russian official referencing World War III. Meanwhile, Trump reportedly warned Israeli PM Netanyahu not to sabotage U.S.–Iran nuclear talks, fearing unilateral action from Israel. In Canada, King Charles delivered a pointed speech defending democracy and international cooperation, widely interpreted as a jab at Trump. Trump later suggested Canada should become a U.S. state to benefit from his proposed (and likely fictional) “golden dome” missile shield. Trump also issued several controversial pardons, including for reality TV stars Todd and Julie Chrisley and Florida nursing home exec Paul Walczak—whose mother donated $1M to Trump and attended a Mar-a-Lago fundraiser. In other news, HHS Secretary RFK Jr. announced that COVID vaccines will no longer be recommended for pregnant women and healthy children, despite no supporting data and warnings from medical experts. Lastly, the Trump administration suspended all international student visa processing, citing plans to expand social media screening—just days after trying to block international enrollment at Harvard.
