US weighs ending H-4 work permits, Indian families face uncertainty

World

  • The Trump administration is considering ending H-4 work permits that allow eligible spouses of H-1B visa holders to work in the US.
  • The move could particularly affect Indian families, as Indians make up a large share of H-1B visa holders and H-4 EAD beneficiaries.
  • H-4 spouses could lose a major source of household income and face disruptions to their careers if the proposal takes effect.
  • No immediate change has been made yet; the proposal still needs to go through the review and public-comment process.
