H-1B visa holders can now sue over fraud-linked visa revocations

A US district court on Wednesday issued an unprecedented ruling stating that holders of H-1B visas will now have the right to take legal action if their visa is revoked due to multiple filings, charging their employer with fraud.

The decision came as a response to a lawsuit filed by 10 Indian nationals working under H-1B visas. Their legal action stemmed from the revocation of their visas, attributed to alleged fraud or misrepresentation by their employers. They demanded the right to contest these allegations.
