H-1B visa holders outside US won't be charged $100,000 to re-enter: US
White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt stated that individuals who already hold H-1B visas are exempt from paying the $100,000 (₹88 lakh) fee to re-enter the US. "H-1B visa holders can leave and re-enter the country to the same extent as they normally would," she added. The new hike will be applicable from the next upcoming lottery cycle.
