Trump Administration's $100,000 H-1B Fee Led to Significant Drop in Visa Demand

Trump Administration's $100,000 H-1B Fee Led to Significant Drop in Visa Demand

The Trump administration's initial imposition of a $100,000 fee for certain H-1B workers resulted in a substantial decrease in demand for the visa program, particularly among major IT staffing and tech companies. Data released by the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) indicates that visa lottery entries fell by 85% to 100% for firms most affected by the White House proclamation that introduced this fee for hires from outside the U.S. This led to cuts in thousands of sponsored workers at companies such as Infosys Ltd., Tata Consultancy Services Ltd., and IBM Corp. For instance, Infosys cut over 8,100 lottery entries (a 91% reduction), Tata Consultancy Services saw a 95% drop with over 5,600 fewer entries, and Cognizant Technology Solutions Corp. entirely opted out of the program. Even Apple Inc. reduced its H-1B lottery entries by 16%.
