Trump Administration Proposes Ending 60-Day H-1B Grace Period

The Trump administration has proposed eliminating the 60-day grace period for H-1B visa holders after job loss, as detailed in a notice by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security. This change would require workers to leave the U.S. immediately upon employment termination, impacting companies that rely on foreign talent, like Deloitte and Infosys. The 60-day grace period allows foreign workers to secure new employment or manage personal affairs before departure. The proposed rule highlights ongoing efforts to limit legal migration and may affect the hiring landscape for skilled roles in the technology sector.
