The article reports on a new executive order signed<\/a> by President Donald Trump that imposes a $100,000 fee on new H-1B visa applicants. This three-year visa, widely used by technology companies like Apple, Google, Meta, Amazon, adn Walmart to bring skilled foreign workers-primarily from India and China-to the U.S., will face a significant cost increase<\/a> from the current fee of approximately $1,000. The White House stated the fee aims to protect American workers by deterring certain foreign applicants who might undercut wages. Initially, officials suggested that renewals and annual fees would also apply, but the White House later clarified that the $100,000 charge is a one-time fee only for new applicants applying from outside the U.S., affecting the next lottery cycle. The policy prompted confusion and concern among employers and immigrant advocates about its economic impact, potential harm to small businesses, and disruption to workers and families. Legal challenges and opposition, both domestic and international, are anticipated due to the measure’s ample implications.
