A hotel reservation, for example, will not constitute a bo fide relationship under the executive order, but an academic lecturer invited to speak in the US will be exempt from the travel ban. Visa applicants will now have to prove a relationship with a parent, spouse, son, daughter, son-in-law, daughter-in-law or sibling in the US, CNN quoted a senior administration official as saying. If the applicant cannot sufficiently establish such a close relationship, he or she will be banned for 90 days if one is from the six Muslim-majority countries, and 120 days if one is a refugee from any country.
