El Departamento de Trabajo de EE. UU. suspende patrocinio de green-card para ocho empresas tecnológicas

El Departamento de Trabajo de EE. UU.

informó que suspendió el patrocinio de green-card bajo el programa PERM para ocho empresas tecnológicas después de que los datos mostraran un uso intensivo de visas H-1B, y anunció una investigación separada sobre presuntos fraudes de visas J-1 en varias universidades. Esta medida se produce después de que la administración anunciara previamente la exclusión de Microsoft, Adobe y otras firmas de outsourcing del mismo programa, y de que se iniciaran indagaciones sobre el empleo de visas J-1 en instituciones académicas.

Resumen

The claim that the Department of Labor halted PERM green-card filings for Microsoft, Adobe, and several IT outsourcers on October 8, 2026, was partially confirmed. The claim that the Department of Labor opened investigations into nine leading universities for alleged exchange-visitor visa misuse on October 8, 2026, had not enough evidence to be verified. The claim that Microsoft was barred from a program assisting H-1B visa holders in obtaining green cards on October 8, 2026, also had not enough evidence to be verified.
