Immigration, Tax & Employment Law Implications of the New Trump Era
April 30, 2025 marks President Trump’s 100th day back in office. In just over three months, we’ve seen a wave of policy shifts that are already reshaping the immigration, tax and business landscape in the United States and beyond.
With ongoing executive action, renewed travel restrictions, changes to visa processing and early signs of reform – everything from corporate mobility to cross-border structuring are being impacted.
In this one-hour webinar, we’ll break down what has changed so far and what it means for employers, sponsors and globally mobile individuals. We’ll cover key developments in US immigration policy, review the ripple effects on UK and Canadian frameworks, and explore what could be next for business planning, compliance and talent strategy.
