After Google, Another Giant Warns H1B Workers!

The situation of the H1B working population in the United States has been very concerning to say the least. And now, the situation is getting that much more complicated with the latest series of events.

Another major US technology company has reportedly advised its H1B visa employees to avoid traveling outside the United States unless it is absolutely necessary. The move comes amid growing uncertainty around visa stamping delays and stricter immigration scrutiny at US embassies and consulates, particularly in India.

According to reports, the company issued internal guidance warning that international travel could result in employees getting stuck abroad for extended periods.

Several visa holders who traveled recently for stamping have faced repeated appointment cancellations and long waiting times, in some cases stretching well into next year. This has raised serious concerns for both employees and employers, as being unable to return to the US directly affects ongoing projects and work continuity.

The advisory follows similar warnings issued earlier by other tech giants, indicating that the problem is becoming widespread across the industry. Immigration experts suggest that enhanced background checks and deeper reviews of digital footprints have significantly slowed down visa processing. As a result, even routine renewals are taking far longer than before.

For thousands of Indian professionals working in the US tech sector, the situation has created anxiety and disrupted personal plans, including family visits and important life events. Companies are now prioritizing workforce stability and urging caution until the visa processing system becomes more predictable and reliable.
