Department of State Report:
Implementation of Presidential Proclamation 9645
December 8, 2017 to September 30, 2019
Introduction
Presidential Proclamation 9645, Enhancing Vetting Capabilities and Processes for Detecting Attempted Entry into the United States
by Terrorists or Other Public-Safety Threats (“the Proclamation” or “PP 9645”) was the result of a worldwide review conducted as
required per Section 2 of Executive Order 13780 (“EO 13780”) of March 6, 2017, Protecting the Nation from Foreign Terrorist Entry
Into The United States…. Section 2 of EO 13780 ordered agencies to determine what additional information, if any, was needed from
each foreign country to assess whether their citizens who seek to enter the United States pose a security or safety threat. After
considering the results of the worldwide review, and accounting for the foreign policy, national security, and counterterrorism
objectives of the United States, on September 24, 2017, the President issued PP 9645, which restricted and limited the entry of
nationals of eight countries – Chad, Iran, Libya, North Korea, Somalia, Syria, Venezuela, and Yemen. The President determined these
restrictions are necessary to prevent the entry of those foreign nationals about whom the U.S. government lacks sufficient information
to assess the risks they pose to the United States. These restrictions and limitations are also needed to elicit improved identity-
management and information-sharing protocols and practices from foreign governments and to advance U.S. foreign policy, national
security, and counterterrorism objectives. On April 10, 2018, the President issued Presidential Proclamation 9723, which removed the
visa restrictions imposed on nationals of Chad.
P.L. 116-6, the Consolidated Appropriations Act of 2019, requires a report every 90 days until September 30, 2019, on the
implementation of PP 9645 for seven designated countries, which were listed as Iran, Iraq, Libya, Somalia, Sudan, Syria, and Yemen;
however, nationals of Iraq and Sudan are not subject to visa restrictions under PP 9645. Accordingly, the Department of State is
providing statistical information related to visa applications made by nationals of the eight countries currently or previously subject to
visa restrictions under PP 9645: Chad, Iran, Libya, North Korea, Somalia, Syria, Venezuela, and Yemen.
Nationals of seven of these countries are currently subject to various visa restrictions contained in the Proclamation, as outlined in the
following table, subject to exceptions and waivers set forth in the Proclamation.

The Department works closely with consular officers at our embassies and consulates to ensure visa applicants who are subject to PP
9645 and otherwise eligible for visas are considered for exceptions and waivers under the Proclamation, as appropriate. As an initial
matter, some applicants benefit from the exceptions provided by the Proclamation. An applicant whose situation fits into one of the
exceptions set forth in the Proclamation, and who is otherwise eligible for a visa, may be issued a visa without going through the PP
9645 waiver process.
If an applicant does not fall into an exception category but is otherwise eligible for a visa but for PP 9645, a consular officer will
automatically consider the applicant for a waiver based upon the three-part test set forth in PP 9645 (see PP 9645, Section 3(c)).
Consular officers adjudicate waivers as part of the visa application process, based on information provided in the standard visa
application and an in-person interview. Aliens who are subject to the Proclamation’s entry restrictions may present evidence during
UNCLASSIFIED
UNCLASSIFIED
their visa interview regarding their eligibility for a waiver pursuant to the regulations applicable to immigrant and nonimmigrant visa
applicants (see e.g. 22 C.F.R. §§ 41.105(a), 41.121(b)(1), 42.65, and 42.81(b)). Consular officers have broad discretion to determine
what, if any, information or documents may be necessary to assess applicant eligibility for a visa and a waiver. The burden of proof is
on the alien to establish that he or she is eligible for a visa and a waiver to the satisfaction of the consular officer (see e.g. 8 U.S.C. §
1361; 22 C.F.R. § 40.6). There is no separate application for a waiver.
As specified in Section 3, paragraph (c) of the Proclamation, consular officers may “grant waivers on a case-by-case basis” only if the
foreign national “demonstrates to the consular officer’s or Customs and Border Protection official’s satisfaction” that: “(A) denying
entry would cause the foreign national undue hardship; (B) entry would not pose a threat to the national security or public safety of the
United States; and (C) entry would be in the national interest.”
The Department is pleased to report that after much work with interagency partners and consistent with the March 6, 2017 Presidential
Memorandum, Implementing Immediate Heightened Screening and Vetting of Applications for Visas and Other Immigration
Benefits…, in early July 2019 a new, enhanced automated screening and vetting process for all immigrant and nonimmigrant visas,
including those subject to PP 9645, went into effect. The new enhanced review is automated and generally occurs pre-interview, and
it provides consular officers much more quickly with the information required to make most PP 9645 waiver determinations.
Thanks to these enhancements, which allow for faster adjudication without compromising national security, consular officers are now
able to make waiver decisions within a few days of the visa interview for most PP 9645-subject applications. Meanwhile, the
Department is working diligently to review and process to conclusion existing PP 9645-subject cases. Since July 2019, the
interagency review of approximately 10,500 cases that were undergoing national security and public safety reviews as part of the
waiver consideration process has been completed and those cases have been returned to consular officers abroad for adjudication.
The data below reflect that the processing of waivers continues apace with approximately 13% percent of subject applicants having
been issued a visa pursuant to the waiver process as of September 30, 2019. The Department expects the percent of subject applicants
issued a visa pursuant to a waiver will continue to increase, as the new automated system will increase the speed and efficiency of the
vetting process.
Once a consular officer determines that an applicant meets all three criteria for a waiver, additional or updated documents may be
required from the applicant for visa issuance, and the timing of visa issuance often depends on how quickly the applicant provides the
required documents to the consular officer. This includes documents such as medical exam results, police certificates, passports, and
other documents required under the Immigration and Nationality Act (INA) or implementing regulations (see e.g. 8 U.S.C. §§
1201(d), 1202(b)-(c)).
UNCLASSIFIED
UNCLASSIFIED
Total Number of New Visa Applicants Per Month
Tables I(a)-(h) in the appendix detail the new visa applicants from countries designated under PP 9645. In other words, an applicant
would only be included in these tables in the month corresponding to his/her first adjudication determination (either an issuance or a
refusal by a consular officer) since PP 9645 was fully implemented on December 8, 2017.
As PP 9645’s visa restrictions are tailored not only to nationality but to visa classification (see Table 1 above), many nationals of the
designated countries are not subject to visa restrictions. Tables I(a), I(b), I(e), and I(f) in the appendix detail the new visa applicants
that are subject to visa restrictions, while Tables I(c), I(d), I(g), and I(h) detail those new visa applicants that were not subject to visa
restrictions due to their nationality and visa classification (e.g. Iranian F visas or Libyan K visas).
Total Number of Visa Applicants Issued and Refused Each Month
Tables II(a)-(d) in the appendix detail the total number of visa applicants from countries designated under PP 9645 that were issued or
refused. The burden of proof is on the alien to establish that they are eligible for a visa to the satisfaction of the consular officer (see
e.g. 8 U.S.C. § 1361; 22 C.F.R. § 40.6). Following the visa interview, a consular officer will either issue or refuse the visa.
The refusals in Tables II(a)-(d) reflect not only refusals for PP 9645, but refusals for all other visa ineligibilities detailed in applicable
law, including the Immigration and Nationality Act (INA) and relevant regulations. Ultimately, in many cases, a waiver of the
Proclamation may be available, but if the visa had not been issued before September 30, 2019, the application would be considered a
refusal for purposes of this report. Thus, some of the PP 9645 refusals reported in Tables II(a) and II(c) could ultimately result in visa
issuance.
Tables II(a)-(d) contain cumulative counts from December 8, 2017 through the end of each of the three calendar months listed,
disaggregated by nationality and visa classification. Totals for subsequent months should not be summed; July 2019 issuance counts,
for example, subsume June 2019 counts and contain cases which had a status of refused under PP9645 in June but were issued in July.
To reiterate, as PP 9645’s visa restrictions are tailored not only to nationality but to visa classification (see Table 1 above), there are
nationals of the designated countries that are not subject to visa restrictions. These applicants are listed in separate tables designated
“Not Subject.”
Total Number of “Pending” Visa Applications
UNCLASSIFIED
UNCLASSIFIED
As described above, a consular officer will either issue or refuse the visa application at the visa interview. Therefore, there are no
“pending” visa applications. While the consular officer determines whether the applicant qualifies for a waiver, the applicant will
remain refused pursuant to PP 9645 and ineligible for a visa due to PP 9645’s visa restrictions. Visa databases do not allow the
Department to extract the exact number of applicants that are currently being considered for waivers by consular officers because
consular systems do not differentiate between applications refused under the Proclamation, and those which are refused and also being
considered for a waiver. The Department will consider technical updates to these systems in the future.
As mentioned above, many of the applications refused in Tables II(a) and II(c) may ultimately qualify for a waiver of the
Proclamation, but if the visa had not been issued before September 30, 2019, the application would be considered a refusal for
purposes of this report. Thus, some of the refusals reported in Tables II(a) and II(c) could ultimately result in visa issuance and will be
reported as such in future reports.
Total Number of Visa Applicants Ineligible for a Waiver and Issued Pursuant to a Waiver
Tables III(a) and III(b) contain the cumulative total of all applicants from countries designated under PP 9645 that have been issued a
visa pursuant to a waiver. Tables II(a) and II(c) contain the cumulative total of all applicants from countries designated under PP 9645
found ineligible for a waiver of PP 9645’s visa restrictions. These data have been disaggregated by nationality and visa classification.
If an applicant is otherwise eligible for a visa but for PP 9645, a consular officer will refuse the visa application pursuant to PP 9645
and automatically consider the applicant for a waiver based upon the three-part test set forth in PP 9645. However, the visa
application will remain refused under PP 9645 unless and until a consular officer finds the applicant is eligible for and grants a waiver.
While the consular officer may determine that an applicant meets all three criteria for a waiver prior to visa issuance, it is at the time
of visa issuance that a waiver is officially granted.
Once a consular officer determines that an applicant meets all three criteria for a waiver, additional or updated documents such as
medical exam results, police certificates, etc. may be required from the applicant for visa issuance, and therefore the timing of visa
issuance often depends on how quickly the applicant provides documents required to the consular officer.

APPENDIX: Implementation of Presidential Proclamation (PP) 9645, December 8, 2017 to September 30, 2019
Notes:
1. In this report, “subject applicants” refers to visa applicants who, due to nationality and visa classification, are subject to visa
restrictions under PP 9645.
2. For Table I, “month of first adjudication” refers to the first time an application subject to PP 9645 was adjudicated by a consular
officer. The monthly totals in Table I refer to the number of “new” applications subject to PP 9645. These applications are
considered “new” in the sense that they were adjudicated subject to PP 9645 for the first time since the policy took effect in
December 8, 2017. They may have received adjudication decisions prior to PP 9645 implementation; for example, if the case
required administrative processing that began prior to, but was not completed before, December 8, 2017.
Monthly totals for new K visa applications have been omitted from this Quarterly Report, while cumulative totals are still provided.
This is due to data system factors related to the processing of nonimmigrant K visa class applications, which make it difficult to
consistently report when K visas were first adjudicated subject to PP 9645. Because of this, monthly totals may not aggregate to the
cumulative total for any given row on Tables I(b) and I(d). Primarily due to this reason, in addition to reporting methodology
revisions made in accordance with Department waiver processing policy changes, and minor data system factors related to
compound visa classes, sub-totals included in Tables I(a)-(h) may not sum to grand totals, and may differ slightly from statistics
previously reported, including in the Department of State’s first and second Quarterly Reports (covering December 2017 through
June 2019).
3. For Tables II-III, all statistics are cumulative from December 8, 2017, the date of full PP 9645 implementation, through the end of
the month listed in the column header. Due to reporting methodology revisions and minor data system factors, statistics may differ
slightly from statistics previously reported, including in the Department of State’s first and second Quarterly Reports (covering
December 2017 through June 2019).
4. For Tables II(a)-II(d), refusal data for visa applications subject to PP 9645 are divided into “Cumulative Non-PP 9645 Refusals”,
i.e., refusals on grounds unrelated to PP 9645, and “PP 9645 Refusal”, i.e., refusals on PP 9645 grounds. Cumulative refusal totals
reflect the number of applications refused as of the end of the month listed. It is possible for cumulative refusal totals to decrease
from one month to the next if applications move from a refused status to an issued status.
5. PP 9645 entry restrictions on Chadian nationals ended on April 10, 2018. The Department resumed normal visa processing for
Chadian nationals beginning at 12:01 a.m., Eastern Daylight Time, on April 13, 2018. All visa data for Chadian nationals displayed
below is restricted to applications adjudicated prior to April 13, 2018.
