US DHS Proposes Ending 60-Day Grace Period for H-1B Visa Holders After Job Loss
The US Department of Homeland Security is considering a proposal to eliminate the 60-day grace period that allows H-1B and other foreign workers to remain in the country after losing their jobs. This change would reduce the time for affected visa holders to find new employment or adjust their status. The proposal is under review by the White House and has not yet been finalized; public comments will be invited once published in the Federal Register.
