美国劳工部提出的提高H-1B签证和PERM绿卡申请者最低工资的规则,已经为联邦审查扫清障碍,为公众发表意见铺平了道路。 A proposed U.S. Department of Labor rule raising minimum wages for H-1B visa and PERM green card applicants has cleared federal review, paving the way for public comment. 预计不久将公布,这项规则将修订基于工作和地点的现行工资计算方法,有可能提高熟练工人的工资门槛,特别是在技术和保健领域。 Expected to be published soon, the rule would revise prevailing wage calculations based on job and location, potentially increasing pay thresholds for skilled workers, especially in tech and healthcare. 占2024年H-1B批准人数71%的印度申请人将受影响最大。 Indian applicants, who made up 71% of H-1B approvals in 2024, would be most affected. 这一变化可能会在2027年H-1B上限季节之前影响雇主的赞助和雇用做法。 The change could influence employer sponsorship and hiring practices ahead of the 2027 H-1B cap season.
