  • Annually, the USCIS (US Citizenship and Immigration Services) issues a total of 85,000 H-1B visas.

According to official figures:

  • The H-1B visa approval rate during FY 2021 (October 2020-September 2021) was 97.3%.
  • During FY 2021, the USCIS received a total of 398,267 H-1B visa applications, which included initial or renewal applications, a very high number compared to previous years.

Pre-administration restrictions

The FY 2021 H-1B visa approval rate really changes the landscape of business immigration compared to what happened under former President Trump’s administration.

Let’s look at some important facts:

  • The Trump administration tried, by all means possible, to implement restrictions on business immigration programs like the H-1B visa, arguing that foreign workers supposedly take opportunities away from American workers.
    This conjecture has been contradicted multiple times by experts and extensive research.
  • In the midst of the healthcare crisis, the Trump administration suspended the issuance of employment-based visas, including the H-1B visa, which substantially delayed the ability of local companies to overcome the national and global juncture.
