flag U.S. immigration changes in 2025 restrict work permits, raise fees, tighten naturalization, and require border photos, mainly impacting Indian nationals.

flag The U.S. has ended automatic renewals of Employment Authorization Documents (EADs) for H-1B spouses, F-1 students on OPT, and certain asylum seekers, requiring new vetting and risking job gaps due to 7- to 10-month processing delays. flag A new $100,000 annual fee for external H-1B petitions takes effect in September 2025, increasing hiring costs for employers. flag Starting October 20, the naturalization civics test requires 12 correct answers out of 20 from a 128-question pool, raising the bar for citizenship. flag All non-citizens, including Green Card holders, must now be photographed when crossing borders. flag These changes, affecting Indian nationals disproportionately, aim to restrict immigration and prioritize American workers.
