Tupaki Analysis: How Badly Can Trump’s H1B change Affect Indians?

It is already known that the United States administration has launched a full scale campaign to cut down the reach of the H1B visa program in the country. This could be largely consequential against the Indian community that heavily depends on H1B policy.

The Trump administration has launched a major investigation into the H1B visa program to target allegations of widespread fraud and credential abuse.

With the Department of Labor issuing subpoenas, the crackdown aims to protect American jobs and address displacement in the tech sector. There could be further restrictions once the new order regarding the H1B, which is likely to come out in August.

The new set of restrictions could be in that H1B policy that is currently in effect in the United States will require additional documentation and increased scrutiny on H1B applications.

It is being reported that the Trump administration is fully committed to completely revamping the H1B program by bringing additional scrutiny and more restrictions on the actual Visa conditions. This will largely affect the employer and also the employee which could change the game against the Indian population.

Starting from now on companies might think twice before committing any kind of fraudulent or inadequate activities with regard to the visa policy, and this will come back to haunt the immigration population.

Previously, the H1B policy used to be very liberal with the idea of employing more foreign workers and that’s bound to change as Americans are likely to be favoured by the new policy now.
