Great News for Registered Nurses, Travel Nurses, Physical/Occupational Therapists, Pharmacists, Family Physicians/GPs, IMGs, Medical Technologists to work in United States on Green Card and work visa (Cap-exempt & Cap-subject), H-4 Visa, OPT also. TN Visa for Canadian Nurses can move to the USA in 8 weeks. Green card to follow.

H-1B Work Visa may also be petitioned for Qualified Nurses, Physical Therapists, Occupational Therapists, GPs, IMGs, Family Physicians, Medical Technologists who can apply for Cap-exempt & Cap-subject work visa.

Doctors and Nurses and few essentially required healthcare workers under NIEs National Interest Exceptions Doctors & Nurses are exempt from paying 100,000/- US Dollars additional work visa petition fee as the Trump administration fixed $100,000 fee for high-skilled H-1B visa applications, the White House said, after some of the biggest medical bodies called out the risk to rural America where there’s already a dearth of providers. All rest of the professions MUST pay additional tax of 100,000/- US Dollars on the top of regular visa petition fees as per new law of Trump Administration and on March 1, 2026 a Federal Court has upheld this law that this additional fee of 100,000/- US Dollars is lawful to be charged from foreign hired workers. This is a Setback for H-1B visa fee fight as a US District Court has ruled that the high fee on new H-1B visas imposed by the Trump administration is legal.

The American Tech Workforce Act bill proposes to eliminate the Optional Practical Training Program and modify requirements for H-1B visas meant for non-immigrant workers in specialty occupations and fashion models and 100,000 work visa fees is primarily for IT Technicians and other specialty occupations professions but some exceptions are available where Doctors, Registered Nurses and other essentially required healthcare workers may not be required to pay increased fees.

New Legislation introduced in US to give 25,000 Green Cards to foreign Nurses, 15,000 Green Cards to Doctors. Several American lawmakers have introduced a legislation Congress to give unused green cards or permanent legal residency status to thousands of foreign nurses and doctors to meet the urgent needs of the overstretched healthcare sector in the US. The Healthcare Workforce Resilience Act would allow for recapturing green cards that were approved by Congress but unused in past years, allowing thousands of additional medical professionals to serve permanently in the United States.
