]]> Washington: After President Donald Trump raised the H-1B visa fee to USD 100,000, the United States has clarified that the rule will not apply to existing visa holders or those seeking renewals.

White House press secretary Caroline Leavitt posted on X on Saturday, saying, “It applies only to new visas, not to renewals, and not to existing visa holders.”

Trump had signed an executive order on Friday, calling the misuse of the H-1B visa programme a threat to national security.

As per the decision, effective September 21, foreign workers applying for an H-1B visa will be required to pay USD 100,000 with their application. Those failing to do so will be barred from entering the US.
