H-1B visa update: Trump extends $100,000 fee by another year. Here's what it means for Indians
Former President Donald Trump extended the $100,000 fee for the H-1B visa program until September 21, 2027, citing significant abuses. The White House noted a 92% drop in registrations from major IT firms since the fee's introduction, while applications for skilled workers with advanced degrees increased. This shift indicates a focus on higher-skilled labor in the U.S. job market.
