Trumps still going to do the thankless job of saving American jobs. He's fighting back against employers preferring h1b visas to hire low cost foreigners instead of Americans. He will be instituting a $100k for h1b applications

Trump To Introduce $100k Fee For H-1B Visas: Report

MR. PRESIDENT, Donald J. Trump is planning to add a $100,000 application fee for the H-1B visa program, a White House official confirmed to Newsweek Friday.

Trump may sign the proclamation as early as Friday, Bloomberg first reported, citing a White House official.

The major H-1B reform would restrict entry under the work visa unless the hefty payment is made. Current fees to register for the visa lottery are $215, with a $780 fee for a Form I-129—a petition for a non-immigrant worker filed by an employer sponsor.

The work-based visa, popular with tech companies, has come under increasing scrutiny in 2025 against a backdrop of tougher immigration enforcement by the Trump administration and a simmering anti-immigrant sentiment in the U.S.

Trump has been under pressure to act on the H-1B, despite being vocal in his support for the program over the years. The visa, which sees tens of thousands of new and renewed applications each year, has become a focal point for those seeking a more restrictionist approach.

The president is set to sign the proclamation later Friday, Bloomberg first reported, with the main change for the H-1B being a new $100,000 fee. Currently, the fee is around $1,000 for an initial application.

Another change could be to prevailing wage rules, meaning the amount employers must pay immigrant workers. This is an area critics have frequently pointed to, arguing companies hire foreign workers because they can pay them less.

i love the smell of shills in the morning

I don't. You should wash your funk off

I don't think MAGA understands subtext or sarcasm, those typically come up after they've dropped out of school

I can come to Canada for free, why would I want to come to a banana Republic like the United States and have to pay 100k to do it
>>
>well, it looks like the cost of manufacturing in America is higher than the cost of manufacturing elsewhere and passing on the cost of the tariffs
>guess we'll hold off on moving manufacturing back to America for now, I'm sure Trumps retarded enough to raise tariffs again when this backfires
Seems like there's truth to Trump deliberately ruining America so he can declare martial law
>>
>>1439687
I can't wait until the leftist shills frame this as "racism" and rally against dRumpf yet again to the benefit of billionaires yet again.
>>
esl shill is projecting again
>>
>>1439709
Bro they are just going to ignore it and call everyone esl because they are programmed to protray everything trump does as negative despite knowing that there is no logical reason to oppose this
>>
>>1439722
this policy is absurd and won't work the way he wants it to, and you're literally a shill
>>
>>1439687
>He's fighting back against employers preferring h1b visas to hire low cost foreigners instead of Americans

Reminder that his wife was here on a H1H2 visa which did not allow her to earn money while being here. What did she do? She modeled for money.

Melania was an illegal immigrant. Thank you for your attention to this matter.
>>
>>1439724
Melania had an EB-1 visa you literal retard.
>>
>>1439724
>H1H2
Wow, is that an H1B visa? Or is this more of that famous leftist "whatabout" I've heard so much of?
>>

Imagine being programmed to defend the billionaire president when he slowly destroys the economy and the country.
>>
>>1439841
Imagine being program to attack the billionaire president by other billionaires while secretly wishing you were a billionaire, but you've settled on being an communist simply because you won't have to work until everyone realizes they don't have to work so you're forced to work.

>>
>>1439866
Holy fucking pivot. At least you updated you script from something 10 years old to something just 5 years old I guess

Too bad you can't stay on topic tho. Typical amongst your kind, really.

>>
>>1439872

>>
>>1439873
>you think the shit you get paid to bring up nonstop is unrelated
>get paid to
Well there's just the latest in your 1 million and 1 fallacies.
Pretty much every single thing you post here is either a lie, completely made up, a conspiracy theory, or (when you're completely BTFO) an insult.

I post here on my own time, partly because I enjoy watching you humor me with your obvious mental illness

Employers pay all H-1B fees, btw. This won't stop anyone from applying. It increases the likelihood that H-1Bs go to long-term (six-year) prospects, instead of shorter-term employees, with the fee likely being amortized over that period. It increases the likelihood that companies will want to try and keep the employee after the six-year max (by having them change their visa status), instead of going back to their home country and then reapplying.

This is likely less about protecting American jobs and more about protecting American corporate dominance, because it may reduce the likelihood that Chinese & Indians come to work here, learn skills at US companies, and then return home with those skills (to benefit Chinese or Indian companies).

Bro there's no guarantee an H1 is going to stick around for 6 years, they are gambling with $100k every time they hire an H1
>>
>>1439906
>Do away with H1-B
>Mass deport H1-Bs
>Make it illegal to employ the rats
Problem solved.
>>
>>1439948
Nah it shouldn't be removed, that option should still be there for top employers to recruit top international talent.
But the days of using h1b as a way to undercut American job seekers is over.
Thanks, trump!
>>
>>1439906
Its coupled with a minimum salary requirement of $150,000. Right now there is no minimum salary requirement just a "prevailing wage" requirement. So, even though it wouldnt make sense, technically they could H1B1 a line cook at Denny's and all they have to do is pay him $23 and hour or whatever it is they make.

By including the minimum salary of 150K they have cut out 90% of the job sector in America. This is a great idea as it refocuses the H1B1 system on what its supposed to do: recruit top talent with rare skills and not be a vehicle to undercut generic middle-class jobs.

>>1440018
sure bud
You going out to pick the fields then? $7.50 an hour to bend over in the mud and sun all day long.
Hop to it. Tomatoes are rotting.
>>
>>1440028
>What about the field pickers!??
Unaffected by anything regarding h1b visas. You probably know that and are just trying to come up with a way to complain about trump protecting American jobs.
>>
>>1440029
>Unaffected by anything regarding h1b visas
Ah, so you've chosen the path of the lying shill...

>(c) The restriction imposed pursuant to subsections (a) and (b) of this section shall not apply to any individual alien, all aliens working for a company, or all aliens working in an industry, if the Secretary of Homeland Security determines, in the Secretary’s discretion, that the hiring of such aliens to be employed as H-1B specialty occupation workers is in the national interest and does not pose a threat to the security or welfare of the United States.

Hurr durr, I'm sure this isn't another grift for trump to take bribes. Trump loves America!

Doesn't matter because I already see posts on fiverr, freelancer and alike, for projects to scrape hundreds of thousands of resumes.

On top of that, I've seen about a dozen WFH/remote websites pop up for jobs that don't appear on the parent companies career listings. Most of those sites are cpanel sites that regularly get suspended.

I'm going to predict a massive, potentially government run, campaign to rip off american's identities.

How are they going to know their status if they use somebody's identity and SS?

They could use your ID and claim tax exempt, leaving you with an IRS demand to prove you didn't work someplace. That could appear years after this person worked and moved on.

AFAIK, IRS doesn't play by any rules, if they claim your info was used to work, you need to prove you didn't.
