Card carrying World Bank staff received an email with *new instructions and recommendations for foreign nationals* as a result of new U.S. policies, according to a copy of the message obtained by Devex. All foreign nationals in the U.S. for 30 days or more — including those who hold green cards signifying permanent residence — *must register with the U.S. government* by April 11, when it will begin enforcing registration requirements for all foreign nationals. Permanent residents “are *required to always carry their green card with them*” said the message from the World Bank Group senior leader team, specifying that the actual card and not a copy was required. For others, the bank still recommended that *staff carry proof of their immigration status*. “We would also like to remind all staff that to date, the U.S. government has not imposed any new restrictions on entry to the U.S. We are continuing to monitor as there are news reports of potential upcoming travel bans that may impact citizens from several countries,” the message said. It also provided contact information for the World Bank emergency line and HR operations on any visa-related matters.
