US government proposes removal of 60-day grace period for H-1B visa holders

The US Department of Homeland Security is advocating for the termination of a sixty-day grace period pertaining to visa holders. This modification has significant implications for skilled workers, particularly those on H-1B and other temporary visas, requiring them to leave the United States immediately upon job termination. The department is currently seeking public feedback before implementing this impactful change that will affect many foreign national employees and their employers.
