By Miriam Jordan
Spouses of H-1B visa holders being sponsored for a green card by their
employers will be allowed to work in the U.S. as part of a new initiative by
the Obama administration to attract high-skilled foreign workers.
Deputy Secretary of Homeland Security Alejandro Mayorkas and Commerce
Secretary Penny Pritzker announced Tuesday that the administration plans
this and other revisions to regulations for the H-1B and other skilled-
worker visas.
Mr. Mayorkas said the goal was twofold: to “encourage highly skilled,
specially trained individuals to remain in the United States” and to
maintain U.S. “competitiveness with other countries that attract skilled
foreign workers and offer employment authorization for spouses.”
Ms. Pritzker said that 28% of new U.S. businesses are launched by immigrants
, who represent 13% of the population, and that four of 10 Fortune 500
companies were started by immigrants or their children. She mentioned Andy
Grove, the former CEO of Intel Corp., who was born in Hungary; Google Inc.
co-founder Sergey Brin, born in Russia; and Jerry Yang, who co-founded Yahoo
and is originally from Taiwan.
The rules, which will be published soon in the Federal Register, are
expected to go into effect after a 60-day public-comment period.
Congress allows 85,000 new H-1B visas to be issued each year, 20,000 of
which are reserved for people with advanced degrees. Under existing
regulations, the Department of Homeland Security doesn’t extend employment
authorization to dependents of H-1B visa holders, who normally have
specialized skills in engineering, programming and other high-tech fields.
