Headline: UNCAPTIONED: Trump Administration Moves to Impose More Than $100,000 Fee on H-1B Visas
Caption: Trump Administration Moves to Impose More Than $100,000 Fee on H-1B Visas. The Trump administration is moving to make a more than $100,000 fee for H-1B visas permanent. The proposed rule would increase costs for companies hiring highly skilled foreign workers in specialized fields. A federal judge ruled the fee illegal, blocking the administration from collecting it while appeals remain. The temporary increase expires in September, but Homeland Security wants to establish the charge by year's end. H-1B visas allow U.S. employers to hire foreign professionals, with thousands issued annually for specialized occupations. The fee would not affect foreign students already in America or workers renewing their H-1B visas. Supporters say H-1B workers fill talent shortages, while critics argue companies use cheaper foreign labor instead.
