Indian Student Killed In Germany On New Year January 02, 2026 11:54

Hruthik Reddy's family had been looking forward to his return for the Sankranti festival. Now, it is the deceased student's body from Telangana that is set to arrive in the new year. The 25-year-old student lost his life in a fire incident in Germany late Wednesday night. Authorities reported that a significant fire erupted at his home in Germany. As he attempted to flee the quickly escalating flames and heavy smoke, it is said that Hruthik jumped from the upper level of the building in Berlin and sustained injuries to his head. He was taken to a nearby hospital, but sadly, he passed away during treatment. This tragedy happened on New Year's Day, transforming a moment meant for joy into one of grief for his family. A shadow of sadness has fallen over his home in Malkapur village, located in the Jangaon district of the state, as the family struggles with the shock of his unexpected loss. Hruthik Reddy had gone to Magdeburg in Germany in June 2023 to study for a master's degree at the University of Europe. He completed his studies at Vaagdevi College of Engineering in 2022. He had reportedly chosen to skip a break during the Dasara festival, with plans to return home in the second week of January to celebrate Sankranti instead. Local officials in Germany are currently looking into what caused the fire. In the meantime, Hruthik's family and friends in Telangana have contacted the Ministry of External Affairs and the Indian Embassy in Germany to speed up the process of returning his remains to his home village for the final farewell. This incident follows a series of unfortunate events involving Telugu students living abroad, including the recent death of a 24-year-old woman from Jangaon district in a house fire in the US last month. The victim, Sahaja Reddy Udumala, had relocated to the US in 2021 for further education. She was residing in Albany, New York. According to early reports, the fire started in a nearby building and quickly spread to Sahaja's residence. She was reportedly asleep when the fire began and could not get out in time.

Indian Woman Detained During Green Card Interview December 16, 2025 14:16

A woman of Indian descent, aged 60, was taken into custody in the United States by immigration officials during her most recent green card interview. Babblejit "Bubbly" Kaur, who has lived in the US since 1994, was detained by federal agents while she was at an appointment for a biometric scan related to her ongoing green card situation, as shared by her daughter Joti. Kaur’s green card petition has been endorsed by her daughter, who is a US citizen, and by her husband, who holds a green card, according to Long Beach Watchdog. Joti informed the publication that on December 1, her mother was at the reception area of the US Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) office when several federal agents entered. Kaur was then called into the room with those agents and was notified that she was being taken into custody. Kaur was given the chance to call her lawyer, yet she remained detained, stated her daughter. For many hours, the family had no idea where Kaur had been taken. They discovered later that she was moved overnight to Adelanto, which was once a federal prison but now serves as an ICE detention center, where she is currently kept. After her family immigrated to the US, they initially moved to Laguna Beach and later relocated to Long Beach when job opportunities arose in the Belmont Shore area. Kaur and her spouse have three children: 34-year-old Joti, who has status in the US under DACA (Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals), along with her older brother and sister, both of whom are US citizens. For over 20 years, Kaur and her husband ran a restaurant called Natraj Cuisine of India and Nepal on 2nd Street in Belmont Shore, becoming a "beloved part of the Long Beach community," as the report mentioned. She also worked for about 25 years at the Rite Aid pharmacy in Belmont Shore until the chain shut down its last stores earlier this year. More recently, she had been getting ready to return to work in the restaurant business at Royal Indian Curry House. Democratic Congressman Robert Garcia, representing Long Beach, has urged for Kaur's release. His office stated that he has been in touch with federal agencies concerning the matter while her family is preparing further legal documents that might enable Kaur to be released on bail as her case moves forward. As reported by her family, Kaur is being held in a large shared room at Adelanto with many other detainees. The lights in her space are kept on all night, and there is constant noise, which makes it hard for her to sleep, her family told IndiaWest. Kaur has been allowed to see family during limited visiting hours, but the process often requires waiting a whole day to have a short visit. "It's a nightmare... We are doing everything possible to get her out. She doesn’t belong there. It’s very cruel," Joti expressed.

Indian Student Missing in Russia for 19 Days Found Dead November 07, 2025 19:25

The mortal remains of a 22-year-old Indian student, who had been missing in Ufa, Russia for 19 days, were discovered in a dam on Thursday. Ajit Singh Chaudhary, who lived in Kaphanwada village in Lakshmangarh, Alwar, Rajasthan, began his MBBS studies at Bashkir State Medical University this year. He vanished in Ufa on October 19. According to sources, the student left his hostel around 11 AM, mentioning he was going to get some milk, but he never came back. Nitin Sangwan, the chairman of Alwar Saras Dairy, stated that Chaudhary's body was located in a dam near the White River. The Indian Embassy in Russia has not released a statement yet but they informed Chaudhary's relatives about his passing on Thursday, sources reported. Former Union Minister Jitendra Singh Alwar noted that Chaudhary's clothes, phone, and shoes were discovered near the riverbank 19 days ago. He suggested that something suspicious had happened to the young man. "Ajit, from Kaphanwada village, was sent to Russia by his family with great hopes, having pooled their hard-earned money for his medical education. Hearing that Ajit's body has been found in the river is incredibly shocking. This is a very sad time for the Alwar family; we have lost a young man with so much potential under suspicious circumstances," he stated in a message on X on Thursday. "The family was very upset after they learned about the 22-year-old going missing; they had been trying and praying for his safe return," he continued. The Congress leader called upon External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar to assist in bringing the student’s body back to India. "An unfortunate event has happened to the young man under suspicious circumstances; this needs thorough investigation. The family should not be required to run around your offices anymore," he expressed. The All India Medical Students' Association (HQs) Foreign Medical Students Wing, which is part of the All India Medical Students' Association, has also reached out to Jaishankar regarding this issue. "The friends of the student attending the same university have confirmed that it is his body," said the association. The university has not yet provided any comments regarding the student's death.

US Faces 70-80% Drop in Indian Students July 18, 2025 20:04

US colleges and universities have seen a significant decline in the number of Indian students arriving. Due to the ongoing troubles with international students under the Trump administration, education advisors in Hyderabad have observed a 70 percent drop in students traveling abroad. This reduction arises from the current halt in visa appointment availability and a sudden increase in the number of visa applications being denied. "At this time of year, most students have typically completed their visa interviews and are preparing to depart. This year, we keep checking the website every day, hoping to find an available slot. It’s the worst situation we’ve faced in years," stated Sanjeev Rai from Hyderabad Overseas Consultant in an interview with the Times of India. US officials had assured that visa slots would gradually become available, but there is a lot of uncertainty, making students anxious. Furthermore, students who do manage to secure slots often do not receive any confirmation, Ankit Jain from Window Overseas Education Consultancy remarked, suggesting that the lack of confirmation might be due to the US testing their system. As a result, many students are looking at other nations for their education. "I really couldn’t just wait around. I could end up losing a whole year. It feels like a dead end right now, so I’ve decided to pull my application," shared a 23-year-old who is now considering Germany for a master's degree in automotive engineering. Arvind Manduva from I20Fever consultancy noted, "If slots don't become available in the coming days, many dreams will be crushed. We’re seeing about an 80 percent decrease. We receive urgent calls every day from students and their families". Another problem is that students who applied as early as March and got interview slots are now experiencing an unexpectedly high rate of visa rejections. “Many students who would typically have had easy approvals are being denied. Their social media profiles are also clean. The only explanation they keep getting is a 214B,” Jain added. Section 214(b) of the US Immigration and Nationality Act is a frequent cause for visa refusals. This occurs when the person applying cannot show enough connections to their home country to indicate they will go back after their trip. Ravi Lothumalla from US Admission, an immigration consulting business located in Dallas, Texas, mentioned that this isn’t a new procedure. The guidelines, reviews, and checks have been in effect for many years and are now being enforced. The US Consulate General in Hyderabad announced that appointment slots have reopened and suggested students check the embassy or website for available times. "We are committed to thoroughly checking visa applicants to ensure they do not plan to harm America or our interests, and that they convincingly prove their eligibility for the visa they are applying for, including that they plan to partake in activities that align with their admission conditions. We advise applicants to apply as soon as possible and be prepared for longer processing times for these visa types," stated a spokesperson from the US Consulate General in Hyderabad. Last year, India passed China by sending over 330,000 students to the United States. As per information from the Ministry of External Affairs (MEA), as of January 1, 2024, more than 1.16 million Indian students were enrolled in higher education institutions overseas, and the number of students choosing Europe has been continuously increasing.

New Route to UAE Residency with Golden Visa July 07, 2025 20:25

In a significant policy shift, the United Arab Emirates has introduced a new Golden Visa program that grants permanent residency to eligible Indian nationals through nomination, eliminating the requirement for investments in real estate or businesses. Instead of the previous investment-linked model, applicants can now obtain lifelong residency by paying a one-time fee of AED 1,00,000 (approximately Rs 23.3 lakh). Previously, Indian citizens had to invest a minimum of AED 2 million (around Rs 4.66 crore) in qualifying sectors to be eligible for the prestigious Golden Visa in the UAE. The updated program allows individuals to be nominated based on their professional accomplishments, societal contributions, or potential to support key sectors like science, arts, finance, trade, startups, and culture in the UAE. The UAE has initially launched this new residency model as a pilot program for citizens of India and Bangladesh, with expectations of over 5,000 applications from India in the first quarter. The application process in India is being facilitated by Rayad Group, the official consulting partner for the initiative. They are collaborating with VFS Global and One Vasco centers in both India and Bangladesh to handle in-person applications, along with providing digital portal and customer support hotline options for submission. Managing Director of Rayad Group, Rayad Kamal Ayub, emphasized the exceptional opportunity this presents to Indian professionals and talent. He noted that the selection process involves thorough checks such as financial due diligence, criminal history verification, and analysis of digital footprints, including social media activities. Although nominations are assisted by the consultancy, the ultimate decision lies with the UAE's immigration authorities. Successful applicants will have the ability to sponsor family members, hire domestic or professional staff, and engage in economic and business ventures. Unlike previous visas tied to property investments, this nomination-based Golden Visa offers lifelong validity. The introduction of this new program highlights the strengthening strategic partnership between India and the UAE, particularly following the implementation of the Comprehensive Economic Partnership Agreement (CEPA) in 2022. Authorities suggest that the program may expand to other CEPA partner countries like China in subsequent phases.

The application process is expected to be efficient and entirely online, eliminating the necessity for in-person embassy appointments. This visa will also accommodate dependents, allowing families to apply collectively and benefit from the local healthcare and educational systems. Significant advantages include: - Renewable residency lasting between 5 to 10 years - Access to public amenities and infrastructure - Possible pathway to permanent residency over time - A framework conducive to digital nomadism To apply, candidates must possess a valid passport, evidence of sufficient funds or relevant professional qualifications, health insurance, and a clean criminal record. Once approved, individuals will receive long-term residency status and can include their spouses and children in the application. The initial phase of this program will target major urban centers in Vietnam—such as Ho Chi Minh City, Hanoi, Da Nang, and Phu Quoc island—with additional information regarding eligibility requirements and documentation to be released by local authorities in the near future. For Indians aiming to broaden their international presence, relocate for career opportunities, or embrace a change in lifestyle within Asia, Vietnam's Golden Visa offers a compelling new pathway.

Indian-Origin Techie Killed In a Tragic Accident In US May 15, 2025 21:12

Vishnu Irigireddy, a tech professional of Indian descent, was one of three individuals who tragically lost their lives in a climbing incident in the North Cascades Range of Washington state. Aged 48 and residing in Seattle, Vishnu was attempting to scale the North Early Winters Spire with three friends—Tim Nguyen, 63, Oleksander Martynenko, 36, and Anton Tselykh, 38—when the accident occurred on Saturday, as reported by NBC News. The group noticed an approaching storm and began their descent, but during the retreat, their anchor point failed, causing them to fall approximately 200 feet, according to a climbing website. Tselykh, the only climber to survive, managed to endure the perilous drop and drove 64 kilometers to alert the authorities about the incident that claimed the lives of his friends. Those close to Vishnu characterized him as an adept climber who derived joy and purpose from nature. A tribute from family and friends on remembr.com noted that Vishnu, originally from India, was a proud part of Seattle’s dynamic tech and cultural communities, living a life embodying values such as integrity, compassion, and a continuous drive for personal growth. His cremation ceremony is scheduled for Thursday, and in his honor, his loved ones plan to donate to two non-profit organizations, as he had developed a strong passion for mountaineering throughout his life. They urged others to contribute to these charities until May 22. Vishnu held the position of Vice President of Engineering at Fluke Corporation, a manufacturing company specializing in test equipment located in the Greater Seattle Area. Following his passing, the company released a statement praising him as an exceptional leader and expressing that his absence was felt deeply throughout the organization. Tselykh is currently hospitalized, receiving treatment for internal bleeding and a traumatic brain injury. North Early Winters Spire, located in the Liberty Bell group of the North Cascades, is favored by seasoned climbers.

Indian student killed in Canada by Stray Bullet April 19, 2025 15:49

A 21-year-old student from India lost her life after being inadvertently caught in a shooting between two groups in Canada. According to Hamilton Police, Harsimrat Randhawa was at a bus stop when a stray bullet hit her during the altercation that involved two vehicles. Enrolled at Mohawk College in Hamilton, Ontario, she was en route to her workplace at the time of the tragic event. Randhawa is the fourth Indian national to pass away in Canada within the last four months. The Consulate General of India in Toronto expressed that she was an innocent bystander who was “fatally struck” by the bullet. "We are profoundly grief-stricken by the tragic loss of Indian student Harsimrat Randhawa... As indicated by local authorities, she fell victim to random gunfire during a shooting between two cars. A homicide investigation is currently in progress. We are maintaining close communication with her family and providing them with all necessary support," stated a tweet from the Consulate. Hamilton Police reported that the shooting took place at the intersection of Upper James and South Bend Road. They discovered Randhawa suffering from a gunshot wound to her chest and swiftly transported her to a nearby medical facility, where she later passed away. Surveillance footage from the area captured an individual in a black vehicle firing at the people in a white sedan. Both cars fled the scene following the gunfire. Additionally, police noted that nearby homes were also impacted by the gunfire, resulting in bullets breaking a window; fortunately, no injuries were reported. This incident follows a series of three separate killings involving Indians in Canada over the past four months, prompting the Indian government to advise its citizens to be vigilant amid rising hate crimes and violent acts in the country. On December 1, 2024, Gurasis Singh, a 22-year-old postgraduate student from Ludhiana in Punjab, was fatally stabbed at his rented home. Another Indian student, also 22 and from Punjab, Rittika Rajput, died when a tree fell on her during a late-night gathering with friends; authorities are investigating this incident. Furthermore, on December 6, Harshandeep Singh, a 20-year-old of Indian descent working as a security guard, was shot and killed by a gang in Edmonton.

Mass lay-offs of Telugu employees in USA April 18, 2025 16:48

American mortgage leader Fannie Mae has dismissed approximately 200 workers, predominantly from the Telugu community, due to accusations surrounding a salary scheme. This significant layoff of employees with Indian roots has prompted three Indian-American lawmakers to reach out to Fannie Mae for clarification. They contend that the dismissal of the Telugu employees occurred without an adequate investigation. These individuals were affiliated with the Federal National Mortgage Association, recognized as Fannie Mae, the largest American firm by asset value. The 200 terminated employees were among the broader group of 700 staff members that the American corporation released as part of a restructuring initiative. The purported ethical breaches are associated with anomalies and the misapplication of Fannie Mae's matching donations program, which is linked to employee compensation. Led by Congressman Suhas Subramanyam from Virginia, three Indian-American lawmakers have addressed a formal letter to Fannie Mae, requesting an explanation for the collective termination of these employees, emphasizing that it was executed without prior notice or thorough investigation. The recent layoffs at Fannie Mae echo similar actions taken by Apple in January, when the tech giant ousted around 50 employees, including some of Indian descent, at its Cupertino headquarters due to allegations of financial misconduct aimed at inflating their salaries. The letter directed to Fannie Mae was endorsed by Congress members Subramanyam, Raja Krishnamoorthi, and Shri Thanedar. In their correspondence to William Pulte, Director of the Federal Housing Finance Agency, and Priscilla Almodovar, President and CEO of Fannie Mae, the lawmakers stated, "We are writing to seek information regarding the recent terminations at Fannie Mae related to alleged fraud and unethical conduct that have affected many of our constituents, particularly within the Indian American community." They underscored that the dismissals of numerous Telugu employees happened without a proper inquiry into the matter. “Although we align with your efforts to combat fraud and misuse within the federal system and housing sector, we are troubled by the apparent absence of due process for the affected employees and urge you to provide an immediate explanation to clarify why their employment was terminated without comprehensive investigation or prior notification," they noted in their two-page letter. In their correspondence, the Congress members pointed out that numerous individuals, who possess extensive experience and have consistently received outstanding performance evaluations, have claimed they did not engage in any misconduct. However, they were denied the chance to present their perspective or advocate for themselves. The letter noted, "It has been reported that these employees faced termination due to supposed breaches of Fannie Mae’s Matching Gift Program. My understanding is that the organizations these individuals supported were sanctioned by Fannie Mae for participation in the program." The Congress members also mentioned, "We have even heard reports that some Indian American employees were dismissed despite not having made any donations to these organizations or been involved in the Matching Gift Program." They voiced their apprehension that the alleged participation in the Matching Gift Program or contributions to certain Indian American entities may have been exploited as a reason to implement broad workforce reductions at Fannie Mae and to damage the reputations of employees through unfounded fraud accusations without proper inquiry. The Congress members specifically inquired whether those impacted were shown any proof of their supposed infractions regarding the Matching Gift Program or given a chance to contest their dismissals. According to a report from The Times of India, a significant portion of the 200 employees let go from Fannie Mae under accusations of ethical misconduct are of Telugu descent. Several individuals are purported to have conspired with the Telugu Association of North America (TANA) to mislead companies and misuse funds, which allegedly involved the inappropriate use of Fannie Mae's matching grants initiative. One of the recently terminated employees reportedly served as a regional vice president at TANA, while another is the partner of a former president of the American Telugu Association (ATA). Reports indicate that TANA is not the sole organization under scrutiny; other groups are also being investigated. Some Fannie Mae employees informed TOI that the layoffs occurred on April 9 and 10, justified by "ethical grounds." Additionally, certain Telugu organizations drew attention in January when Apple terminated employees over similar fraudulent allegations. Of the staff members let go by Apple, six were identified by authorities in the Bay Area and warrants were issued for them. Although none of these six individuals were of Indian descent, another report indicated that many of the dismissed workers were Indians, allegedly exploiting Telugu charity organizations in the United States for fraudulent activities. Now, Indian-American lawmakers are advocating for the dismissed Telugu employees at Fannie Mae. While fraud must be met with strict consequences, it is essential that thorough investigations and procedures are followed prior to any termination of employment. This is the cause the Congress members are championing.

Trump's Citizenship Impacting Big on Indian Parents February 12, 2025 18:19

An executive order from US President Donald Trump that seeks to eliminate birthright citizenship for the children of temporary visa holders has caught immigrant communities, particularly Indians, by surprise. Presently paused due to a legal challenge, this directive has left many Indian families, especially those expecting children soon, in a state of uncertainty. The ramifications for Indian professionals holding H-1B visas are significant. Many believed their children born in the United States would automatically gain citizenship, but this order jeopardizes that assumption. “This directly affects us,” said Akshay Pise, an Indian engineer residing in San Jose, California, whose wife, Neha Satpute, is due to give birth this month. “If this order is enacted, we are unsure what the outcome will be—it’s unfamiliar ground,” he expressed to BBC. As the couple's delivery date nears, they briefly contemplated an early labor induction but ultimately chose against it. “I want the natural process to unfold,” remarked Ms. Satpute. Mr. Pise emphasized, “My main focus is on ensuring a safe delivery and my wife’s well-being. Citizenship is secondary.” The anxiety surrounding the order has made headlines, with some parents opting for premature C-sections in hopes of guaranteeing their child’s US citizenship. However, Satheesh Kathula, the president of the American Association of Physicians of Indian Origin (AAPI), counseled against such actions. “Given the stringent medical regulations here, I strongly advise against early C-sections solely for the sake of citizenship,” he stated. US resident Priyanshi Jajoo, who is expecting in April, voiced her concerns to BBC: “Do we need to reach out to the Indian consulate for a passport? What visa category applies? There is a lack of clear guidance.” Cyrus Mehta, an immigration lawyer based in New York, noted that “there is no provision in US law that grants non-immigrant status to those born here.” Without the promise of birthright citizenship, the future of H-1B holders’ children remains legally precarious. Ms. Satpute conveyed that the ambiguity surrounding this situation is distressing. “Pregnancy is already a stressful time, and we thought that after living here for ten years, things would ease up—then this happens on top of everything else.” Her husband pointed out their status as legal, tax-paying immigrants, insisting that their baby deserves US citizenship. “It has been the law, hasn’t it?” he remarked. Indians represent the second-largest immigrant community in the United States and would be particularly impacted by this order. More than five million individuals hold non-immigrant visas, and if this new regulation takes effect, their US-born children would not acquire citizenship. “Indians are dealing with the most extensive green card backlog of any nationality,” stated immigration policy expert Sneha Puri. Current regulations restrict green cards to 7 percent per country, and since Indians receive 72 percent of H-1B visas annually, the backlog has escalated to 1.1 million. David Bier, immigration director at the Cato Institute, cautioned that “New Indian applicants might have to wait lifetimes, with approximately 400,000 likely passing away before receiving a green card.” The executive order will also have implications for undocumented immigrants, removing birthright citizenship for their US-born children, who once had the ability to sponsor their parents for a green card at the age of 21. Estimates on the number of undocumented Indians differ—Pew Research suggests about 725,000, while the Migration Policy Institute estimates around 375,000. For those Indians holding H-1B or O visas, the primary worry revolves around the future of their children.

How H-1B visa holders stay beyond 6 years in the USA? January 28, 2025 20:19

Thousands of Indians work in the United States every year on a temporary visa like the H-1b, but have the dream of getting a permanent place of residence through a green card. The journey from H-1b visa to the constant residence in the United States depends on a form, a lawsuit I-140. If you submit a petition I-140, the people will be the US Green card guards and drive in the USA in the USA in the USA. The I-140 petition includes a constant residence program as a foreigner who works on a temporary visa. The H-1b visa is a temporary employment visa that enables employers to hire foreign employees, especially in science and technology, especially in science and technology, for which a bachelor's degree is required. Although the H-1B is only temporary, it is a double visa. In other words, visa holders can legally follow a permanent apartment (US Green Card), while the temporary situation is retained. Many people are concerned about the H-1b visual plan, in which President Donald Trump has an important problem of the election campaigns between immigrants and employment, but has been reaching the United States for years. Together with Trump in the White House, the Supercar amount attacks the Indians and the H-1b, and they are expected as an American kidnapper. However, some measures to migrate from the H-1b visa to the Green Card in the USA are required. At the beginning of the financial support of the employer, the employer sends the application form to the representation of foreign employees. The first step of this process is the validity or permanent approval of the work. Here the U.S. government employer must prove that the employment of foreign employees has no negative impact on employment opportunities and wages. This includes advertising for your local position and proves that justified employees cannot use them to play a role. If a Perm certificate has been approved, the employer changes to US citizens and immigration services (USCIS) to submit an immigration petition I-140. The lawsuit claims that foreign workers are entitled to green cards due to employment and tried to ensure primary days. This is important to determine the position in the Green Card queue. The importance of I-140 can ensure that the H-1B holder can extend the visa for more than six years. The I-140 has an H-1b visa in the Green Card process and can take years for rear protocols. Without confirmation of I-140, the H-1b visual owner, which ends at the end of a six-year border, must leave the United States. However, the verified I-140 changes everything. If you are in a country with important green cards such as India, I-140 has approved the H-1b visa according to the USCIS regulations from one to three years. However, there is an extension for all practical purposes as long as a visa owner receives a green card. As a result, you can continue your work in the USA and continue your life while waiting for the Green Card and releasing the urgent time pressure to return to your country. The last step in this process is to set the status set (form i-485) or to receive a US Green card with console processing. Applicants for countries with high residues such as India confront exceptional delays and often wait many years or decades a day. However, these forms of the petition can help maintain the legal status if the H1 -B owners continue to work and at the same time wait for a permanent place of residence. A joint experience in X (previous Twitter). H-1b is a double visa (explicitly enables immigration goals). The only way to remain in H-1B after six years of restriction is to use the I-140 program for employment-based Green Cards. Most Indians do not spend this step for numerical hats. "In these" temporary years "I worked for many celebrities with high technology and they paid more than ever." The way to a green card is a very serious threat. The report is that the Trump administration is considering this method. In any case, I have worked with I-140 for more than 15 to 20 years. The I-140 petition has effectively changed the temporary character of the H-1b visa for long-term residents in the United States. Applicants do not have to leave the United States unless the petition is rejected or the H-1b visa owner is not rested. According to the New York Times, the US Congress distributes 65,000 H-1B annually for employees who have acquired a bachelor's degree. These visa owners come from industries such as technology, education, healthcare and production. There are no restrictions on the number of employees who can be made from a single country, but more than two thirds of the H-1b visa come from India. Employers have to pay H -1B employees to pay the average salary to US workers who are in similar positions or similar positions. Despite this clear rating, the company's report on economic policy showed that 60% of employees employed in H -1B were paid for their 2019 professional role in accordance with the average wage at local level. The petition is 140 that temporary visa owners use their temporary protection to persist and contribute to the American community and the economy.
