H-1B Visa record deletion by the Department of Labor begins today. Know the impact

America’s Department of Labor is going to start deleting H-1B visas and other visa applications from their record starting today. This new rule will impact H-1B Visa applicants as their US records will no longer be available.

The U.S. Department of Labor is removing visa records older than five years from the Foreign Labor Application Gateway system, causing historical case data to be unavailable, making it difficult for applicants and legal representatives to retrieve these details.
