A new bill proposed in the US Congress aims to pause the issuance of H-1B visas for three years and reduce the annual cap from 65,000 to 25,000. This legislation, if passed, could significantly impact the hiring of foreign skilled workers in the United States.
Key Details:
- Proposed pause on H-1B visas: 3 years
- Current cap: 65,000 visas per year
- Proposed new cap: 25,000 visas per year
- Bill status: Under consideration in Congress
This proposed change is likely to affect many employers who rely on H-1B visa holders for specialized roles, potentially leading to labor shortages in certain sectors. Need help with your immigration case? Visit QuickFiling.us for professional immigration services.
