Trump administration moves to impose more than $100,000 fee for H-1B worker visas

In imposing the fee, Trump invoked the president's authority under immigration law to restrict the entry of certain foreign nationals deemed detrimental to U.

President Donald Trump's administration on Monday released a proposed regulation to codify an unprecedented fee of more than $100,000 on new H-1B visas for highly skilled foreign workers, a measure that has been blocked by the courts.

A federal judge in June ruled that the fee was illegal and blocked the Trump administration from collecting it.
