US immigration lawyer explains how $100,000 H-1B visa fees will harm US firms & startups
US-based immigration lawyer Sophie Alcorn said $100,000 H-1B visa fees will harm startups and innovation in US. "Businesses might be hesitant to sponsor [H-1B visa-holding employees]," she said, adding, "Many of the world's most brilliant people who come to Silicon Valley are from India...So this'll likely affect startups' ability to innovate and founders' desire to start their companies in US."
