New visa rules now require social media reviews for certain US visa applicants. Since December 15, the policy covers all H-1B visa applicants and their dependents. The State Department says applicants must keep social media profiles public for screening.

Officials call it a national security move and stress that a US visa is a privilege. Critics worry about free speech and unclear limits. There is no public list of disqualifying online content.

Reports suggest posts linked to censorship or political activity could raise red flags. Immigration lawyers say the lack of clarity is delaying applications and confusing applicants. Could your online posts affect your visa chances?
