Trump has sought a review of the non-immigrant programs, which includes the popular H-1Bs.

H-1B visa recipients can remain in the country legally for 60 days without being paid.

"Among the top 30 H-1B employers are major US firms including Amazon, Microsoft, Walmart, Google, Apple and Facebook. All of them take advantage of program rules in order to legally pay many of their H-1B workers below the local median wage for the jobs they fill," said the report released by the Economic Policy Institute.

The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) argued that the American technology workers, who had challenged the 2015 ruling on giving work permits to H-4 visa-holders, have not been irreparably harmed by such work authorisation.

They have also asked for the suspension of the Optional Practical Training (OPT) programme which lets foreign students in science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) work in the United States for up to three years after graduating. In 2019, over 223,000 people had their OPTs approved or extended.

As the country is under Coronavirus lockdown, you can use this opportunity to learn some important skills and accelerate your career growth. Here are the eight skills you can learn.

When you consider a new job which appears to give you a higher paycheck, identify the hidden costs that could derail your dreams of saving for your new house. Here’s what you should look at.

When you Work From Home, what you consume comes from your pocket. An entire day at home with the air-conditioning and lights on adds to your electricity bill. Other expenses may include your computer, printer, etc. Here’s what you should look at.

Skill stacking is the most efficient way to multiply your earning ability. Not everyone has the time, ability and resources to single-mindedly pursue one skill to perfection. However, there is a faster way.

Though India does not have similar jobs data reporting structure during this pandemic, it is easy to see that the job market this year will be the most challenging that we have seen in our lifetimes.

Factors will determine if your job profile will evolve. However, don’t expect a change where the business-efficient alternative is to replace you to save nonproductive costs or deal with change in customer behaviour.
