Core Points - The U.S. Chamber of Commerce has filed a lawsuit against the Trump administration's increase of H-1B visa fees to $100,000, claiming it harms American businesses [1] - The lawsuit argues that the new fee is illegal as it overrides the provisions of the Immigration and Nationality Act governing the H-1B program [1] - The increase in fees is expected to particularly impact startups and small to medium-sized enterprises, which rely on the H-1B program to access global talent [1] Industry Impact - The new high visa fees are likely to affect major tech companies such as Amazon, Microsoft, and Google, which depend on the H-1B program to hire foreign employees, including software developers [2] - There are concerns that the fee increase may lead U.S. companies to relocate jobs overseas, especially in research and development sectors, and could deter international students from pursuing studies in the U.S. [2]
