There are no visa laws that target India specifically: US official on H1B

Business To Business, New York, 5^th June, 2026:    Amid concerns among Indian professionals and students in the United States over visa policies, a senior US official has said that American immigration laws are being applied uniformly worldwide and are not specifically targeted at India.
What the US said
Responding to a question about immigration and concerns among Indians holding visas such as the H-1B, Tommy Pigott said:
"When it comes to visas… what we had here for a long time with previous administrations going back was inconsistent application of visa law. That is no longer the case. We are consistently applying visa law across the board. I think that will offer clarity."
Context
Pigott made the remarks during a roundtable organized by the New York Foreign Press Center with a select group of journalists.
His comments come amid continuing concerns among many Indian nationals in the US regarding:

• H-1B work visa renewals.
• Employment-based immigration processes.
• Visa compliance requirements.
• Processing delays and scrutiny of applications.

• Information technology.
• Engineering.
• Healthcare.
• Research and academia.

• Visa rules are being enforced consistently.
• Enforcement is not directed at any particular nationality.
• Applicants should expect a more uniform application of immigration laws regardless of country of origin.
