The US has launched a pilot program requiring certain visa applicants to post bonds of up to $15,000, signaling that citizens of CBI nations may be the next target under the Trump administration’s expanding immigration policies.

Mona and Rebecca, along with their guest, Patrick Peters from the Montreal based CBI company ClientReferrals dissect the latest barrier to traveling into the US for certain folk.   Is the recent pilot program requiring visa applicants to post bonds up to $15,000 a targeted hurdle, or simply a sign of a broader shift?
