Cognizant records zero H-1B visa registrations for FY27 amid Trump's crackdown

H-1B registrations by major Indian IT firms dropped in the FY2027 lottery, with Cognizant submitting 100% fewer registrations than in previous year, a Congressional Research Service (CRS) report said. This comes as Trump government tightened immigration policies, including $1,00,000 fee for certain new H-1B applications through 2027. Tata Consultancy Services' (TCS) registrations declined by 95%.
