Pilot programme for domestic renewal of H-1B visa start
The Office of Management and Budget (OMB) has cleared a pilot program that allows certain H-1B visa holders to renew their visas within the United States (US). This program is expected to benefit many Indian technology professionals already in the US. The pilot program, approved by the Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs (OIRA), eliminates the need for qualified H-1B visa applicants to travel abroad for visa renewal. The US Department of State plans to expand the program to cover H-4 visa holders and other non-immigrant visa categories in 2024 and beyond.
