On September 19, 2025, President Trump signed a presidential proclamation titled Restriction on Entry of Certain Nonimmigrant Workers. The proclamation took effect at 12:01 a.m. Eastern Daylight Time on September 21, 2025, and is slated to remain in force for 12 months (until September 21, 2026), unless extended. The core of the proclamation is the imposition of a $100,000 supplemental fee on new H-1B petitions (i.e., petitions “submitted after” the effective date).
However, the proclamation is not yet a complete, fully operational rule. Many specifics remain ambiguous. Below is a breakdown of what is known, what is uncertain, and what stakeholders should plan.
