US govt to fight lawsuits challenging $100K H-1B visa fee
Financial Express Kochi
|October 25, 2025
THE US GOVERNMENT has said it will fight lawsuits aimed at blocking the $100,000 fee imposed on new H-1B visa petitions, asserting that “for far too long” the system was “spammed with fraud” and must be overhauled to prioritise American workers.

The remarks made by White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt on Thursday came days after the US Chamber of Commerce filed a lawsuit last week against the move, describing it as “mis-
guided policy” and “plainly unlawful” action that could cripple American innovation and competitiveness.
