Breaking News: US Confirms No Annual Charge in H-1B Visa Rule | ABP NEWS

The United States has clarified its recent changes to the H-1B visa fee structure. According to the new policy, the revised fee will apply only to new applicants and is a one-time fee, not an annual charge. The rule does not affect existing H-1B visa holders, those renewing their visas, or those who applied before September 21. Furthermore, the U.S. government confirmed that existing visa holders can continue to travel in and out of the country as usual. There are no changes in rules for renewals or re-entry. The clarification comes amid rising concerns within the immigrant tech community, especially among Indian professionals.
