<p style="margin-left:0in; margin-right:0in"><span style="font-size:11pt"><span style="font-family:Calibri,sans-serif"><span style="font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"">USA is a major destination for foreign workers especially skilled and semi skilled ones. Large employers apply for long term visas for their employees to work in US called as H1B visas. Recent misuse has forced authorities to introduce stringent measures.</span></span></span></p>

<p style="margin-left:0in; margin-right:0in"><span style="font-size:11pt"><span style="font-family:Calibri,sans-serif"><span style="font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"">The H-1B visa is a non-immigrant visa that allows US companies to employ foreign workers in specialty occupations that require theoretical or technical expertise. Most of the Indian IT professionals go to the US on the H-1B work visas.</span></span></span></p>

<ul>
<li><span style="font-size:11pt"><span style="font-family:Calibri,sans-serif"><span style="background-color:white"><span style="font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"">A specialty occupation requires the application of specialized knowledge and a bachelor's degree or the equivalent of work experience. The duration of stay is three years, extendable to six years. The visa holder may need to reapply after his/her visa expires.</span></span></span></span></li>
<li><span style="font-size:11pt"><span style="font-family:Calibri,sans-serif"><span style="background-color:white"><span style="font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"">A person in H-1B status must continue to be employed by their employer in order to stay in H-1B status. If the person's employment ends for any reason, the person must leave the United States, unless the person applies for and is granted a change of employment status who is ready to sponsor work visa. </span></span></span></span></li>

<ul>
<li><span style="font-size:11pt"><span style="font-family:Calibri,sans-serif"><span style="font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"">If the US government goes ahead with this decision, the Indian IT sector can suffer massively. India is one of the biggest countries to contribute to the IT sector in the US and the H-1B visa restriction could affect thousands of Indian IT professionals working abroad.</span></span></span></li>
<li><span style="font-size:11pt"><span style="font-family:Calibri,sans-serif"><span style="font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"">Indian IT firms could also face difficulties in serving their foreign clients. Major Indian IT firms such as TCS and Infosys could face difficulties in servicing their US-based clients which contributes towards a majority of their business. </span></span></span></li>
<li><span style="font-size:11pt"><span style="font-family:Calibri,sans-serif"><span style="font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"">With restricted H-1B visas, these firms will not be able to send their personnel to the US for servicing the clients. Indian IT firms rely on the H-1B visa send support staff to the US for maintenance and servicing.</span></span></span></li>
