Second Judge Blocks Trump's $100,000 Fee for New H-1B Visas
A second judge has blocked the Trump administration's proposed $100,000 fee for new H-1B worker visas, marking a legal setback. The fee was intended to fund visa processing but faced criticism and legal challenges. This ruling affects changes to the H-1B lottery system starting October 1, which includes a new wage-based selection process impacting Indian IT firms, whose registrations have dropped 92% for fiscal year 2027.
