US Suspends Cognizant's Green Card Filings Amid Visa Fraud Investigation
The US Department of Labor has suspended Cognizant's ability to file new permanent labor certification (PERM) applications amid an investigation into alleged visa fraud involving H-1B and PERM programs. The probe, conducted with the White House Fraud Task Force, aims to address potential misuse of employment-based immigration processes and protect American workers. The suspension affects new filings but does not impact existing approvals or H-1B visas. Cloudera has also faced a similar suspension. Details on specific allegations, affected cases, and investigation duration remain undisclosed.
