The US is considering a $100,000 fee for graduates seeking work visas post-study and has expanded immigration enforcement at airports, affecting visa holders with pending applications. Indian student enrollment in Western countries like the US, UK, and Canada has declined due to stricter immigration policies and rising costs, with a shift toward European destinations. Separately, Estonia ranks highest globally for relocation in 2026, while India ranks 100th, reflecting mixed factors in affordability and business opportunities.
