The Immigration and Nationality Act of 1990 specifies that no more than 7% of the visas from each category can go to people of a specific nationality, which has been a significant limitation for Indian and Chinese H-1B applicants, and Sriram Krishnan among others have advocated for removing these caps. Will this 7% cap be raised or eliminated for H-1B visas in 2025? Raising the total number of H-1B visas without changing the 7% number resolves No.
