A US federal judge has struck down President Donald Trump’s controversial $100,000 fee on new H-1B visa applications, ruling that the charge amounted to an unlawful tax imposed without congressional approval. The court rejected the administration’s argument that the fee was merely a penalty, stating that only Congress has the authority to impose such taxes. The fee coincided with a sharp decline in H-1B registrations, raising concerns among employers and foreign workers. The ruling could have major implications for Indian professionals, US companies, and the future of America’s skilled immigration system. Gursshheen Gahllen tells you more.
