Trump admin moves to scrap grace period for H-1B visa workers

The Trump administration is proposing a new rule that would eliminate the grace period for H-1B visa holders and several other temporary work visa categories. This change would require these workers to leave the United States immediately after their employment ends, rather than having a period to find new employment or make arrangements to depart. The proposed rule is expected to significantly impact thousands of foreign workers in the U.S., particularly those in the technology sector, by reducing job mobility and increasing the risk of immediate deportation upon job loss. This move reflects the administration's broader efforts to tighten immigration policies and prioritize American workers.
