Trump Scraps H-1B Visa Lottery, How New US Visa Rules Will Impact Indian Professionals
New US Visa Rules: The Trump administration has overhauled the H-1B visa process, replacing the lottery with a wage- and skill-based selection system starting February 27, 2026. Although the overall visa cap remains the same, higher paying, highly skilled roles will now have greater chances of selection. The reform aims to deter low-wage filings and duplicate applications, with the DHS saying it will reduce misuse, safeguard U.S. workers, and prioritise top talent. The shift is expected to have a major impact on Indian applicants and prompt changes in employer hiring strategies.
