US President Donald Trump shook the technical industry last Friday, September 19. By announcing an incredible increase in fees in H-1B visa, increasing the costs to $ 100,000, almost 50 times the previous fee. The announcement launched an immediate chaos in the United States: Silicon Valley warned employees of traveling abroad, foreign workers rushed to book back flights, and immigration lawyers worked overtime to decode order.
20 September, the White House explained that the fee would only apply to new applications and would be a one -time fee.
Yet, despite clarification, the future of the H-1B-Dlouho program criticized for undermining American workers, but praised for bringing the best global talents-not.
Here is a way of new rules to affect Indian and Chinese professionals and the American industry.
How will it affect changes in the immigration rules of Indian and Chinese technology professionals?
India is by far the largest recipient of H-1B visas, which last year represents 71% of approved applications, while China was 11.7% far away about the US government.
The IT industry of $ 283 billion, which earns approximately 57% of its income from the United States, is expected to be severely affected. Technical veterans, analysts and economists claim that a Visa visa fee of $ 100,000 will disrupt the long -term practice of rotation of qualified talents into American projects.

IT companies with clients such as Apple, JPMorgan Chase, Walmart, Microsoft, Meta and Alphabet’s Google can now suspend the rotations on the mainland, speed up the coastal delivery and increase the hiring of US citizens, Reuters reported.
However, experts predict that while India or China may experience an immediate impact, the ripple could be even more far -reaching in the United States.
According to the BBC, Indian outsourcing giants like TCS and infosys have already begun to build local workforce and move the van at sea.
“Since employers are reluctant to commit to the heavy costs of sponsorship, we could see more reliance on distant contracting contracts, sea and concert workers,” said BBC Aditya Narayan Misra of Ciel HR.
How will it affect the US industry?
Experts warn that an increase in fees will force American society to radically change their hiring policies and significant amounts of their operations, which potentially undermines the US innovation and competitiveness.
Immigration policy analyst Gil Guerra said: “The demand for new workers in fields such as Tech and Medicine (in the US) will increase (albeit uneven), and given how specialized and critical these fields are a shortage that could have a serious impact on the American economy and national well -being.”
In addition, more international students from India and China will now consider alternative goals for study, which could have an impact on American universityYou system.

Who will benefit the most?
Several countries strengthen their technical and stem talent funds and stand up to attract worldwide talents prices from American jobs to increase H-1B visa fees.
Thanks to its strategic location, Canada can be the largest recipient of policy change. Meanwhile, the British “global talent working group” is trying to lure top global scientists, including academics and digital experts. Germany has already invited H-1B visa holders to look for jobs there.
