US clears plan to scrap H-1B job-loss window
The Trump administration has completed its review of a proposal to eliminate the discretionary 60-day grace period for H-1B and other foreign professionals after their employment ends, potentially affecting thousands of Indian workers and their families. The Department of Homeland Security's proposal, titled "Eliminating the Discretionary 60-day Grace Period", cleared the White House review process with changes on August 27, but has not been published yet. The existing 60-day protection remains in force until further notice.
