Posted on: 17/Dec/2017 10:54:08 AM
The news has been circulating that the President Trump administration is planning to prevent the spouse (husband/wife) of the H1B Visa holders from working in the USA.
From the year 2015, President Obama administration had permitted the spouses of H1B Visa holders to work in the USA. There was a protest against this and a case was filed.
In this situation, the latest news is that the Home Ministry of the USA has decided to withdraw the permission granted as above for the spouse of H1B Visa holders to work in the USA. However, the reason for this has not been explained.
This decision has been taken as per the president Trump’s policy that the Americans stand as the first priority for local jobs.
If the above permission is withdrawn, the spouses of the H1B Visa holders in the USA will be rendered jobless. So, they might leave the USA. This may lead to the country losing some more skilled personnel.
There are further plans by the Home Ministry to revise the existing rules and regulations for H1B Visa.
