Washington, Sept. 21: Some changes have been made to the order issued by USA President Donald Trump, which requires American companies that employ foreigners to pay 100,000 dollars or Rs. 88.13 lakh annually to the government if they have to work in the United States on H-1B visas.
Amid widespread opposition to the new order, White House Press Secretary and Trump's aide Caroline Leavitt has clarified this.
In the order issued on 19th, it was explained that not only those who get new H-1B visas but also foreign workers already in the US will have to pay Rs. 88 lakh for annual visa renewal. Now this has been changed and the previous system of paying the same amount for H-1B renewals will continue and the new amount of Rs. 88 lakh will be applicable only to those who get new H-1B visas in the US. Caroline Leavitt stated that this amount is not annual, but a one-time amount.
