In a move that has sent shockwaves through the global tech industry, U.S. President Donald Trump has announced a $100,000 fee on H-1B visas. The H-1B program has been the backbone of the Indian IT sector’s access to U.S. markets, employing thousands of skilled professionals every year. This steep fee could make it nearly impossible for many firms and workers to continue operating in the U.S., reshaping the future of outsourcing and global talent mobility.
