The White House ended this practice last year. Now, if an Indian H-1B needs to travel for work or has a family emergency in their home country, they may not be able to seamlessly depart and return.

All dates were pushed back and no new slots were opened in India in the last six months. Now such reports are coming out that some dates are opening randomly in June, July this year, whereas till a few months ago the situation was that there were no slots available in India till 2027.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"16\"\/>Mass rescheduling of dates was triggered by the new policy of social media checking of visa holders, for which consular offices reduced the number of appointments per day. As hundreds of H-1B visa holders were stuck in India indefinitely, their employers were in a dilemma about allowing some to work from India.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Court documents claimed they both knew the positions listed in the petitions did not exist and supplied H-1Bs to other clients. &#8221; decoding=&#8221;async&#8221; fetchpriority=&#8221;high&#8221;\/> Court documents claimed they both knew the positions listed in the petitions did not exist and supplied H-1Bs to other clients.
