According to the decree, the entry of foreign nationals holding H-1B visas to work in specialty occupations in the United States will be restricted, except for applicants whose petitions include the six-figure payment by their employer. The entry restriction applies to foreign nationals entering or attempting to enter the United States after the date of the proclamation, Sept. 21. The statement came from Iran's Supreme National Security Council (SNSC), detailing the outcomes of a meeting chaired by President Masoud Pezeshkian.
