Corporate lawyers and others with agendas are creating a lot of FAKE NEWS around President Trump's H-1B Proclamation, but these are FACTS:

1. The Proclamation does not apply to anyone who has a current visa.

2. The Proclamation only applies to future applicants in the February lottery who are currently outside the U.S. It does not apply to anyone who participated in the 2025 lottery.

3. The Proclamation does not impact the ability of any current visa holder to travel to/from the U.S.

Finally some clarity! Thank you

[Karoline Leavitt @PressSec]

To be clear:

1.) This is NOT an annual fee. It’s a one-time fee that applies only to the petition.

2.) Those who already hold H-1B visas and are currently outside of the country right now will NOT be charged $100,000 to re-enter.

H-1B visa holders can leave and re-enter the country to the same extent as they normally would; whatever ability they have to do that is not impacted by yesterday’s proclamation.

3.) This applies only to new visas, not renewals, and not current visa holders.

It will first apply in the next upcoming lottery cycle.

.@Paytm Is there any plan to allow linking paytm #UPI with a US phone number? I’d love to use paytm with my Indian bank accounts but unable to do so right now since i can’t sign up with a US number.

@XfinitySupport Your support is shitty too. It’s been months since I’m trying to downgrade but you won’t let me.

[Siddhartha Rao 🇮🇳 @dfirwallah]

.@Xfinity .@XfinitySupport Great job on designing a system that doesn't let you downgrade your service plan offering plans with deals only on speeds higher than current but not lower. Time to switch!
