On September 19 (local time), President Trump inked an executive order that brought about a substantial overhaul of the H-1B visa program. Under this new directive, companies are mandated to pay an annual fee of $100,000 for each H-1B work visa they sponsor; failure to comply will result in applicants being barred from entering the United States. Trump asserted that this measure is designed to sift through and identify “truly highly skilled” foreign professionals. The announcement has sparked a scramble among tech giants like Microsoft and Google, which are now urgently advising their H-1B visa-holding employees to steer clear of international travel and to make arrangements to return to the U.S. at the earliest opportunity.
