Donald John Trump
— Aug 24, 2026
The Trump administration’s DHS is advancing a formal rule to impose a $103,265 fee on new H-1B petitions, expanding a six-figure charge that courts have already challenged and that would apply to petitions from outside the United States. The proposal, now in a 30-day public comment period with potential finalization by year-end, faces ongoing legal battles and underscores a broader push to tighten the H-1B program, while renewals and cap-exempt petitions would be unaffected.

The ruling offers relief to employers and foreign skilled workers, including many from India, though the fee remains subject to ongoing litigation and a separate proposed fee is unaffected.
