On January 17, the reforms will take effect and present significant advantages for these techies.

According to the US Citizenship and Immigration Services, H-1B specialty occupations include fields such as architecture, engineering, mathematics, physical sciences, social sciences, medicine and health, education, business specialties, accounting, law, theology, and the arts.

Somdutta Singh, investor with Karma holdings and a serial entrepreneur, says one of the most notable changes is the increased flexibility for US employers to hire global talent, which is particularly beneficial given that Indians accounted for a staggering 72.3% of H-1B visas issued in 2023. This heightened demand for skilled workers from India is expected to create more opportunities for aspiring applicants.
