Programmers can now be issued H-1B visa as per a new verdict

A recent ruling by the US Federal Court of Appeals says that H-1B visas can be issued to computer programmers after confirming what is called the “Speciality status”.

The USCIS had revoked the specialty status for computer programmers in 2017. That took away their eligibility for an H-1B visa. That decision is what has been overturned by the appellate court. The verdict came as the decision for a case involving Innova Solutions that was trying to hire an Indian national as a Programmer Analyst. However, his application for an H-1B visa was not accepted.

But after the court looked into the matter, it pronounced its verdict in favor of the Indian employee. This was another verdict concerning US immigration that stood against the H-1B policy of the Trump administration.
