A new Department of Homeland Security (DHS) regulation (RIN 1615-AD22) proposes eliminating the 60-day grace period for nonimmigrant visa holders, including H-1B, L-1, and O-1 workers, following employment termination. Scrapping the existing 60-day grace period entirely will directly harm legal immigrants who have contributed significantly to the United States’ technological and economic leadership in his statement. This proposal strikes at the heart of the South Asian immigrant community and skilled workforce. Impact on South Asian Families: Hundreds of thousands of South Asian tech, healthcare, and engineering professionals hold H-1B status. Eliminating the grace period creates extreme psychological distress, financial ruin, and school disruptions for children raised in the U.S.
