How will Trump's plan to impose extra fees on H-1B, L-1 visa extensions impact Indians?

The Trump administration's reported plan to impose extra fees on the extension of the H-1B and L-1 visas will impact Indians the most, as Indians accounted for 71% of H-1B visa extensions in FY2025. Although additional fees would be paid by employers, Indian nationals will likely face the most burden as they make up the majority of H-1B beneficiaries.
