New Guidance on $100,000 fees for H-1B Applications

On September 19, 2025, President Trump issued a ‘Proclamation on the Restrictions on Entry of Certain Nonimmigrant Workers’, significantly affecting the H-1B visa program. The proclamation, effective September 21, 2025, restricts the admission of certain H-1B workers outside the United States and introduces a new $100,000 fee requirement for specific H-1B petitions.

The announcement initially created widespread confusion about its scope and immediate impact. Many H-1B visa holders were advised not to travel, or, if abroad, to return to the United States before the proclamation took effect to avoid possible denial of reentry.

In response, on September 20, 2025, U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) issued a short memorandum clarifying the scope of the proclamation.

It’s not about what you do; it’s about how you do it.

Success isn't just completing tasks - it's the creativity, effort and attitude you bring. Two people can do the same thing, but the one who does it with passion, precision and flair will leave a lasting impact. That sums up Hudson McKenzie experience.
