Americans prioritize the workplace! The bigger push for expatriate Indians, the harder it is for H1 visa applications

The state of the US economy is in a state of shock. Unemployment has skyrocketed in the last few months. At the same time, the entire US is witnessing an unbridled GDP contraction. Opposition groups called for a halt to the Trump administration's crackdown on dissent and unemployment in the run-up to the US presidential election. In this situation, the Trump administration was seen to take a big step again with the H1B visa to reduce unemployment.

New guidelines

The Trump administration on Tuesday issued new guidelines in this regard. It is learned that a number of immigration visa application rules have been tightened. Which is going to have a big impact on the expatriate IT workers working in America. According to Trump, the new policy will greatly benefit Americans in getting jobs in the domestic market.

More than 65,000 peoples apply for new visas every year

The Department of Homeland Security announced the new rules for H1B visas on the same day. Meanwhile, more than 75,000 expatriates come to the United States every year in search of work because of this visa. Most of whom are Indians. At present, according to the new rules, one-third of them will lose their jobs, informed sources said.

Temporary suspension order last July

Earlier, in July, the Trump administration temporarily suspended H1 visas until the end of 2020. In addition to H1B, Trump also signed new visa bans, including H2B, L1 and J1. This time the government wants to give a firm seal on that path. In a statement, Chad Wolf, the US Secretary of State for Homeland Security, said:‘We have entered an era where economic security is an integral part of the lives of indigenous youth. Therefore, they also need priority in working in domestic companies'.

The new decision is to prevent the deprivation of American youth At the same time, Acting Deputy Secretary of Homeland Security Ken Cuccinelli voiced considerable concern. Patrick Pizela, deputy secretary of the Labor Department, was also seen expressing concern. Multiple U.S. companies often look for expatriate workers to hire low-skilled workers. For this reason, Americans are seen to be the most deprived in the field of information technology. As a result of this new system, the amount of deprivation in the workplace of the local youth will be reduced a lot, according to these two officials of the Department of Homeland Security Labor.
