U.S. Labor Department halts green-card sponsorship for eight tech firms

The U. S.

Labor Department said it halted PERM green-card sponsorship for eight technology companies after data showed extensive reliance on H-1B visas, and announced a separate investigation into alleged J-1 visa fraud at several universities. The move builds on earlier actions by the administration that barred Microsoft, Adobe and other IT outsourcers from filing permanent-labor-certification petitions, and that earlier opened probes into university J-1 visa programs.

摘要

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.
