US employers rethink H-1B talent strategy as Trump policies tighten: Envoy Global

Newspoint
US employers are revamping their approach to hiring and retaining foreign professionals as sweeping immigration policy changes under the Trump administration make the H-1B programme more expensive and less predictable, according to Envoy Global's U.S. Corporate Immigration Trends 2026 Report, as reported by Lubna Kably in The Times of India.

Based on a survey of 519 HR and global mobility professionals, the report found that employers are moving away from treating H-1B sponsorship as a standalone process. Instead, they are adopting long-term immigration strategies that begin with student visas, progress to H-1B sponsorship and lead to earlier green card applications.
