A major legal setback for Donald Trump’s immigration policy as a US federal court has struck down the controversial $100,000 H-1B visa fee, ruling it unlawful. The decision comes as a huge relief for thousands of Indian professionals, who form the largest group of H-1B visa holders in the United States, especially in sectors like technology, engineering, research, and healthcare.
The Trump administration had argued that the fee was necessary to protect American jobs and discourage companies from hiring foreign workers over domestic employees. However, the court ruled that the move resembled a tax, which requires approval from Congress—not a presidential order. While the ruling blocks the fee for now, the legal battle is far from over, as the administration is expected to appeal the decision.
