It's 1-time fee, not applicable to existing H-1B holders: US in clarification over hiked visa fee
After US President Donald Trump announced a hike in H-1B visa fee to $100,000 (₹88 lakh), the White House has clarified that it is a one-time fee and not an annual fee. White House spokesperson Karoline Leavitt said the new hike will be applicable "only to new visas, not renewals, and not current visa holders".
