Kathmandu. The Donald Trump administration is going to make major changes to the process of issuing H-1B visas. <\/p>\n
So far, this visa will be issued through the lottery system, now it will be issued through the salary-based selection system. The White House Information and Regulatory Affairs Office has brought a proposal in this regard. <\/p>\n
On August 8, the government approved a sweeping change in the allocation of H-1B visas for workers in special occupations. The move comes under the Donald Trump administration’s “Buy American Things and Hire Americans” policy. <\/p>\n
The Trump administration’s move will increase the difficulties for thousands of foreign students looking for future career prospects in america. Students who have recently graduated will also be affected. <\/p>\n

It allows you to work in the U.S. for a period of 3 years. At present, its annual slot is limited to Rs 85,000. So far, new graduates and experienced professionals are selected every year under the lottery process. <\/p>\n During Donald Trump’s first term, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) tried to change the lottery system for H-1B visas. After becoming president again this year, Trump has taken steps in this direction again. The biggest information about the new rule is that it is based on salaries rather than a lottery system that keeps everyone equal. <\/p>\n These changes are believed to be due to Trump’s criticism of the H-1B program several times. Trump said, “American employers have misused this visa by hiring low-paying foreign workers. \u2019<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Kathmandu.
