Trump administration will take opinion from public on cancellation of H-4 visa holders approvalThe American Trump Administration has said that the H-4 visa holder will give an opportunity to the public to give their opinion on their proposal for cancellation of approval to work. The US lawmakers and the corporate sector expressed concern over the proposal of the Trump Administration. Thousands of Indians will be affected by the implementation of this proposal.
H-4 Visa H-1B Visas are issued to the husband or wife of foreign professionals. The number of Indian professionals in H-4 visa holders is quite high. Indian professionals get jobs in American companies through H-1B visas. This allows American companies to hire foreign professionals.
Companies hereby employ foreign professionals in specializations with specializations that require theoretical or technical expertise.
H-4 Visas are issued only to close family members of H-1B visa holders. This includes the employee's husband, wife and children below 21 years of age. The Home Security Department has said that the US Citizenship and Immigration Service (USCIC) will come out with a new proposal by January 2019. Under this, he is considering the removal of some H-4 husbands or wives of H-1B non-migrants from their regulation. Approximately 70 thousand H-4 visa holders, who hold work permit for new rules, can be affected.
USCIS recently wrote almost identical letters to the heads of US lawmakers and corporate sector who expressed concern over the proposal of the Trump Administration to cancel the H-4 visa. USCIS Director L. Francis Sisna has written a letter to Senator Kamala Harris and Kristen Gillbrand on October 16, which was put on the website of the organization this month. It says, the H-4 non-migrants will be given an opportunity to give feedback during the notice and comment period on the proposal for certain amendments in the rules regarding employment clearance.
