US President Donald Trump’s hike in H-1B Visa fee comes into effect on September 21. Following Trump's announcement of a $100,000 fee, the White House has issued a clarification. Press secretary of the White House, Karoline Leavitt, said the H-1B visa fee will be a “one-time” payment for new applicants. She added that the fee hike is not applicable to renewals and current visa holders. Clarification followed rising concerns over the H-1B visa fee hike. According to reports, several tech giants warned employees against leaving the country. Many H-1B visa holders reportedly cancelled travel plans amid fears of denied entry into the US. The Indian government said it is studying the implications of the US measure, adding that it is likely to have "humanitarian consequences".
