America’s latest H-1B visa shock of $100,000 fee has left Indian tech workers in panic. With the Trump administration allowing almost no time for the new rule to settle, Microsoft has reportedly told Indian techies to return to the US immediately.
Microsoft’s Urgent Warning
In a leaked internal email, Microsoft advised its H-1B workers not to leave the US. Those already outside were urged to rush back before the September 21 deadline. This left many Indians with less than 24 hours to arrange tickets back.
Impact on Visa Holders
The ruling does not immediately impact existing H-1B visa holders. However, the move is unprecedented, and experts advise caution. Even H-4 dependent visa holders have been warned to return, despite not being directly affected.
Panic at Airports
Experts believe the sudden announcement could trigger chaos at Indian airports. Airlines may hike ticket prices sharply, exploiting the urgent demand. Despite the cost, flights are expected to sell out quickly.
Tech Industry on Edge
The sudden policy has left even major tech companies unsure about what comes next. Microsoft’s concern shows the seriousness of the issue. If a company with vast legal resources is worried, Indian techies in smaller firms face even greater challenges.
