Thank you for reading and supporting The Insightful Immigration Blog. Listed below are the top 10 most viewed blogs in 2016. While these are the 10 most viewed blogs, each blog is a carefully crafted gem, and we invite you to read all of them. In 2016, we covered a wide range of topics, including the high skilled worker rule, STEM Optional Practical Training, decisions of the Board of Alien Labor Certification Appeals, ethics, and Trump’s many views on immigration.   We will continue to provide insightful commentary on contemporary immigration issues in 2017, and there will surely be much to cover under the new Trump administration! We wish all of our supporters and well-wishers a very happy New Year!
