‘Please do not…’: Stranded Indian H-1B’s request on Reddit goes viral amid visa chaos

As hundreds of H-1B visa holders have been left with no other option other than biding their time in India as the US State Department canceled maximum visa appointments of December and rescheduled them to March 2026, a request from a Redditor has gone viral. The Redditor urged fellow Indians who are in the US to cancel their appointments for January or February so that those who are stuck in India get an early chance for their visa appointments. The request resonated with many on social media as the unprecedented decision from the US administration even left immigration attorneys confused as they don’t know what should be done in the present situation.
