The Trump administration is preparing to start sanctioning visas from China over the Chinese Communist Party's slowing its acceptance of deported nationals.

This comes a week before President Donald Trump’s visit to China. Trump is expected to bring up the deportation issue while meeting Chinese leader Xi Jinping.

A State Department official told The Epoch Times that China refuses to fully cooperate with the United States to take back its citizens. The official said that even though China accepted about 3,000 deportees last year, the speed of accepting deported Chinese slowed down in the last six months.

The official warns unless China steps up cooperation on deportations, the U.S. would deny more visas and impose stricter entry controls at the border.

The United States would also raise the amount of cash bond applicants have to pay when applying for certain visas. The money is refundable.
