Is USA banning immigration from Islamic countries?..

Not exactly banning from all Islamic countries, but suspending for a period from those countries where terrorist organisations have a significant presence.

President Trump plans to suspend issuing visas for people from Iran, Iraq, Libya, Somalia, Sudan, Syria or Yemen (where terrorist organizations have a significant presence) for at least 30 days.

The order says the government will give countries 60 days to start providing the information (required from country of origin?) or citizens from those countries will be barred from traveling to the United States.

Trump is expected to sign the order the week ending 27 Jan 2017.
