US President Donald Trump signed an announcement on Friday (September 19, 2025), under which there is a provision to increase the H1B visa fee to US $ 1,00,000 (Rs 88 lakh) annually. For this fee, the first $ 10,000 (8 to 10 lakh) was fixed. Trump’s move is expected to adversely affect Indian professionals working in America.
At the same time, US Commerce Minister Howard Lutnik was seen justifying this decision of Trump. He said, ‘Is that person so precious that the company should give $ 100,000 to the government every year. This is the purpose of immigration. Keep Americans on jobs, make sure the people coming to the top talent. The President’s attitude is very clear. The top talent is only for America, stop rubbish. ‘
Only capable people get entry into America
Howard Lutnik insisted, ‘The purpose of this policy of Trump is to ensure that only capable people get admission. The company will have to decide. Do they want this, is the person so valuable that he should get a payment of one million dollars annually, or should he return home and achieve even more high status in America? ‘
He said, ‘If someone has to train, then give training to the youths who have completed studies from good universities of our country, train Americans. Do not snatch our jobs by bringing people from outside.
Technical companies dependent on foreign talent
Trump has already been questioning the H-1B visa. This visa is especially important for technical companies, as they are very dependent on foreign talent. According to government data, people with about two-thirds of H-1B visas are done in computer and tech related work. However, this visa is also used to hire engineers, teachers and health sector employees.
