Enhancing Program Integrity and Integrity and Interagency Coordination in the Administration of the H-1B Nonimmigrant Visa Program

This executive order directs the Secretaries of State, Labor, and Homeland Security to coordinate with Commerce, Education, and the SBA when processing H-1B petitions, and requires them to consider whether the employer has engaged in layoffs of similarly situated U.S. workers within the past year. It also orders the Labor Department to review past labor condition applications for potential enforcement actions against sponsoring employers, effectively tightening scrutiny on H-1B usage, especially by outsourcing firms.

Restriction on Entry of Certain Nonimmigrant Workers

This proclamation extends for an additional 12 months the existing restriction on entry of H-1B nonimmigrant workers, which requires a $100,000 payment per petition (with limited exceptions) and is supported by a DHS weighted selection process that prioritizes higher-skilled, higher-paid workers. The action continues to target IT staffing and outsourcing firms that have abused the program, and it maintains the requirement for ongoing rulemakings by DHS and DOL to further reform wage protections and program integrity.
