NEW YORK: Withdrawn . A single word on a thick bureaucratic file on the seventh day of the Biden administration delivered a huge win for spouses of workers on H1B visas in the US who spent the last four years worried sick that their work authorisations would be killed off.
Synopsis
The latest development brings to an end years of efforts by the Trump administration to rescind an Obama era regulation that allowed a certain subset of spouses of H-1B visa holders to work in the US.
Agencies
On text messages, chat groups and online threads, the outpouring of relief played out online on Tuesday evening.
PUNE: US President Joe Biden has permitted dependents of H-1B visa holders to continue working in the country.
The measure had been brought in during the Barack Obama presidency in 2015. The previous Donald Trump administration had proposed to revoke it as part of his anti-immigration policy. The latest move is expected to provide relief to more than 100,000 Indian nationals who had moved to the United States along with their spouses for work.
