Synopsis The US Department of Homeland Security may eliminate a 60-day grace period for certain foreign workers. This proposed change could significantly impact Indian professionals working in the United States.
Currently, this period allows workers time to find new employment or depart the country. The proposal is under review and has not yet taken effect.
If finalized, the rule would require immediate departure after job termination.
