Appeals Court Temporarily Blocks $100,000 H-1B Visa Fee
A U.S. appeals court has temporarily blocked the enforcement of a $100,000 fee for certain H-1B visa petitions, following a lower court's decision to vacate the fee. The fee, introduced by a Presidential Proclamation under President Trump, was intended to accompany consular processed H-1B petitions. The court's decision means that the fee cannot currently be enforced while the government's appeal is ongoing. This development is part of a broader legal battle over the fee's legality, with implications for employers and foreign workers seeking H-1B visas.
