The US Embassy in India has issued a clear warning to visa holders, stating that American visa screening continues even after a visa is granted. If anyone violates US immigration or legal rules, their visa can be cancelled.
“U.S. visa screening does not stop after a visa is issued. We continuously check visa holders to ensure they follow all U.S. laws and immigration rules – and we will revoke their visas and deport them if they don’t,” the US Embassy said in a recent post on X.

This statement is part of the Trump administration’s broader effort to tighten immigration rules and enforce compliance.
In an earlier advisory on June 28, the US Embassy said, “Those who are in the United States illegally or commit visa fraud will be held responsible. If you break U.S. law, you will be punished with significant criminal penalties.”
On June 19, the embassy reminded applicants that getting a US visa is “a privilege, not a right.”
On June 26, the US government also began asking visa applicants to provide social media usernames used over the last five years.
