H-1B visa: Immigration lawyer Sophie Alcorn explains $100,000 fee, key questions answered
H-1B visa fee: Immigration lawyer Sophie Alcorn, in a conversation with Deedy Das, who is a partner at Menlo Ventures, explained the $100,000 fee introduced by US President Donald Trump and answered key questions around it.
She said that employers do not have to pay for H-1B renewals, and that the new order doesn’t apply to the existing visa holders. Alcorn said that the proclamation, which Trump signed on September 19, doesn’t apply to H-1B visa transfers to other companies.
