Abstract

This paper is an analysis of Impact of H1B Visa on Indian Companies. In today’s era economies of the world have become so integrated that any change in one country’s policies has its effect on other countries too and impact becomes even more remarkable when the other country was a major beneficiary of policy in the pre reform period. Same is the case with H1B visa curbs being talked about by US Government especially after the New President Mr. Donald Trump has come to the scene. The 45th President of the United States brought with him to the Presidency, a refreshing agenda– America First. And one of the unique selling propositions of “America First” was a pre-planned and sustained attack on the H1B system of visas that brings in “specialty occupation workers” into the United States. The Department of Homeland Security and Justice Department are promising greater scrutiny of the H-1B visa program, through which many foreign engineers are hired as high-skilled labor. President Donald Trump’s stricter approach to immigration has already raised concerns with Silicon Valley companies that rely on immigrant talent to fill key roles.
