Indian IT companies and professionals have found a new way after the Donald Trump administration paid 1 lakh dollars (about 88 lakh rupees) of the H-1B visa lump sum fees. Now the focus is fast moving towards L-1 visa, which is currently being considered a cheaper and convenient option than H-1B.

Why the trend towards L-1 visa is moving
Due to the increased cost of H-1B, it has become difficult for companies to send foreign employees to America. At the same time, there is no limit to recruitment on L-1 visa and it allows companies to transfer its employees from abroad. With this, Indian companies can easily send their already working employees to America.

What do experts have to say?
Experts say that L-1 visa is not a completely easy solution. For this, the employee must have to work abroad with the company at least one year. This means that newly recruited candidates cannot be sent directly to America on L-1. Apart from this, the investigation of American officials on this visa is also tightened.

Investigation will increase, yet companies ready
Legal experts say that as companies increase the use of L-1 to avoid H-1B, the US administration can also monitor and tighten this category. This may include more documents, high rejection rates and additional rules. Despite this, companies are considering it as the only practical path.

New route to Indian IT sector
The uncertainty and concern over the increase of H-1B fees has forced Indian companies to find alternative measures to send their employees to America. In such a situation, L-1 visa is proving to be a new jugaad for the Indian IT sector, even if many challenges are associated with it.

US President Donald Trump has started the Gold Card Visa program by signing the executive order. Under this scheme, people will have to pay one million dollars and companies will have to pay $ 2 million. Trump has named it The Trump Gold Card and claimed that the US will get billions of dollars.

Trump wrote in his Truth social post that for a long time millions of illegal migrants have come to America and weakening the immigration system. He says that the amount received from the gold card will be used to reduce tax, further development projects and repay the country’s debt. Trump estimates that this program will soon raise more than $ 100 billion.

Difference between green card and gold card

US Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnik said that about 2,81,000 people used to come to America every year from the old Green Card Program. Their average income was around $ 66,000 and most of these people depended on government assistance. In contrast, the gold card will be available only to the rich and influential people. People of this class will start new businesses in America and create employment opportunities for the local people.

For whom is the gold card made?

White House Staff Secretary Will Sharf said that the main goal of the Trump administration is to stop illegal immigration and secure boundaries, but the gold card program will be a new way to attract foreign investors and talented people. It will include the same people who will stand with America economically and ideologically.

How much will America benefit from gold card?

The program is estimated to have an income of more than $ 100 billion from this program. The possibility of reducing tax and reducing debt will increase. The influence of big investors and corporations in the US will be stronger. At the same time, America will become more difficult for ordinary workers and middle class migrants.
