Shocker: Trump To Make H-1B Visa Fee $100K?

The President of United States, Donald Trump has been taken pretty strong decisions when it comes to anti-immigration policies in the country. He is coming up with a new regulation every day to make it all the more tougher for immigrants in the U.S.

A shocking news update says that the H-1B visa program in the United States may soon face a huge change. Reports claim that former U.S. President Donald Trump is preparing to sign a new proclamation, possibly as early as Friday.

According to this proposal, anyone applying for an H-1B visa would need to pay a massive application fee of $100,000 (around 88 lakhs in Indian rupees).

The H-1B visa is widely used by skilled workers, especially people from India, to work in the U.S. technology and business sectors.

Currently, the application fees are much lower, which makes it possible for many companies to bring international talent to the U.S. If this new rule comes into effect, the cost will rise drastically, making it almost impossible for small companies and regular applicants to afford.

Officials say the main reason for this huge fee is to reduce overuse of the H-1B program. They believe many firms misuse it to bring cheaper labor from abroad instead of hiring Americans.

However, critics argue that such a massive fee will unfairly punish skilled workers and harm the U.S. tech industry, which depends on global talent.
