A federal judge struck down the Trump administration's $100,000 H-1B visa application fee, ruling it was a tax that only Congress has the power to impose. The decision removes a major cost barrier for US employers hiring skilled foreign workers, particularly affecting the Indian tech professional community.
A US congressional bill proposes a three-year freeze on new H-1B visas, cutting the annual cap from 65,000 to 25,000 and requiring a minimum salary of $200,000. The measure would also ban dependent visas, directly affecting Indian tech workers and IT services firms that rely on the programme.
