Immigration Analytics was founded by Vasanth Vaidyanathan, Esq., an immigration attorney with more than 20 years of practice devoted exclusively to U.S. immigration and nationality law.
Most immigration coverage stops at the headline. We start there. When a policy shifts, a court rules, a new fee takes effect or an agency changes how it handles a filing, the real story is what happens next: who is affected, how the change will be carried out, and what it means for the system as a whole. Immigration Analytics reports and analyzes these developments for everyone who works with or depends on U.S. immigration law, including attorneys, policymakers, government officials, employers, universities, researchers, journalists, and the immigrants and families whose lives these decisions shape.
What we cover
- Courts: federal litigation over immigration policy, from emergency orders in district courts to Supreme Court rulings
- Enforcement: ICE and CBP operations, detention and removals
- Legislation: immigration bills in Congress and the states
- Rules: Federal Register rules, USCIS policy changes and agency memos
- The White House & DHS: executive orders, proclamations and department policy
- Employment immigration: H-1B, PERM, EB-1A and other employment-based green cards, L-1, TN and student visas
- Removal Defense: asylum, immigration court and the Board of Immigration Appeals
- Visas Abroad and Citizenship: consular processing, travel restrictions and naturalization
We also keep a Court Calendar of upcoming hearings and deadlines in the cases we follow, and By the Numbers, a snapshot of key immigration figures with their sources.
Our standards
We report from primary sources whenever they exist: court filings and opinions, the Federal Register, agency memos and policy manuals, and official data from USCIS, the immigration courts and TRAC. We link to those documents where we can so readers can check them for themselves. When a story turns on legal analysis, we explain the reasoning, not just the result.
If you see an error in our reporting, please email editor@immigration-analytics.com with a link to the article and what needs correcting. We review every report, and when we get something wrong, we correct it promptly and note the correction on the article.
