US House of Representatives passed Friday an omnibus bill to fund the
federal government that makes hiring of highly skilled foreign workers on H-
1B and L-1 visas substantially expensive.
It doubles the application fee for H-1B visas for every new hire to $4,000
from $2,000 and $4,500 for every L-1 visa, which is needed for intra-company
transfers, from $2,250.
These changes will apply to US companies with more that 50 employees, 50% of
whom are foreigners, mostly US operations of Indian companies such as TCS,
Infosys and Wipro.
These hikes are meant to fund continued healthcare for first-responders
impacted by the 9/11 terrorist attacks and biometric entry and exit
monitoring system.
Indian government and IT industry had been following the progress of the
legislation with a mix of dread and helplessness as there was little they
could do stop it.
The senate is expected to pass the legislation in a few hours sending it up
to the White House for the president to sign it into law, which is also
expected later in the day.
There are other legislations in the pipeline that seek to cut down the
hiring of freeing workers specially on H-1B visas, which, it’s critics
believe, are displacing American workers.
One legislation proposes to fix minimum salary for H-1B workers — at the
same level as that paid to American workers — to prevent companies from
hiring cheaper foreigners.
The same legislation proposes to prevent a company from filling a vacancy
created by firing a local, American employee for two years, to address the
issue of displacement.
Another legislation seeks to bring down the number of H-1B visas from the
current 85,000 to 70,000 a year. Not all or any of these may become law, but
the visa fee hikes will.
These changes will be in force for the next 10 years, and are likely to cost
the Indian IT industry an estimated $400 million a year, according to their
trade body NASSCOM.
The hiked fee of $4,000 and the new levy of $4,500 will be charged for
extensions also — H-1B visa is given for three years, which can be extended
for the same period, but just once.
L-1 is also valid for three years and can be extended up to the maximum of
five and seven years, for different categories under this visa type.

还是在乎的...老印为了保证抽上H1B，每次都要投很多家ICC，每一家都要收$10k上下
作为签证代理费（很多即使抽不中也不退），其实负担还挺大。这么一涨价，估计海投
数目要锐减了。

这点钱对于那些ICC真是不算啥，而且羊毛出在羊身上，一次申请三年，每年多700不到
。反而对于单打独斗的同胞不利。因为那些本愿意sponsor h1的雇主增加了初期投资，
增加了投资收
回的风险，所以sponsor H1雇佣意愿会降低。以后国人独立找h1 sponsor工作的难度会
增加。
关于50员工以上，50%外国人这个条件，的确是针对ICC这类顾问公司的。不过美国开公
司很容易，控制在49人一下，多开几家绕过去就是了。另外，不管对被雇佣的谁好谁坏
，美国政府反正把钱多赚到了很多。

50人以下不受影响。
可能会有雨后春笋般的老印小ICC成立。
若真要针对老印，应该H1B按照出生地国家diversity，单一国家不能超过25%，这样起
