The United States is taking steps to ease the visa process for foreign tech workers. The US government plans to restart "domestic visa revalidation" for specific categories on a trial basis with the aim of expanding it in the coming years. The move could greatly benefit a large number of H-1B and L1 visa holders, who are primarily foreign tech workers. The pilot program, set to launch later in the year, has the potential to bring major relief to thousands of Indian tech professionals working in the US. The H-1B visa is a crucial visa category for US companies, as it allows them to hire foreign workers in specialty occupations that require technical or theoretical expertise. Technology firms rely on the H-1B visa to bring in tens of thousands of employees annually, mostly from countries like India and China.
