Introduction

In this article, we delve into the recent changes introduced by the Biden Administration that have a significant impact on H-1B visa holders. Our team of experienced attorneys has closely studied these developments and is ready to provide you with the expert legal guidance you need throughout the visa application process.
The H-1B Visa Program
The H-1B visa program is designed for highly skilled foreign workers who want to work in the United States. It allows professionals in specialty occupations, such as engineers, scientists, and IT specialists, to seek employment with U.S. companies. However, the program had faced several challenges in the past, making it difficult for many skilled individuals to secure this visa.
Changes under the Biden Administration
The Biden Administration has brought about significant changes to the H-1B visa program, opening doors of opportunity for skilled workers. These reforms aim to streamline the application process and create a fair and efficient system. Here are some of the notable changes:
- Prevailing Wage Levels: The Administration has proposed revising the prevailing wage levels, which determine the minimum wage employers must offer to H-1B visa holders. This change ensures that wages are competitive and not artificially suppressed.
- Advanced Degree Holders: The lottery selection process for H-1B visas has been modified to increase the chances of receiving a visa for individuals with advanced degrees from U.S. institutions. This change prioritizes individuals who have received higher education in the United States.
- Work Flexibility: H-1B visa holders can now enjoy increased work flexibility, including the ability to change jobs or employers more easily. The Biden Administration has also introduced measures that provide more stability and protection for workers.
- Increased Transparency: The Administration is committed to enhancing transparency in the H-1B program by strengthening oversight and investigation of employers. This ensures that workers are treated fairly and that the system is free from abuse.
