What is free visa? (What is Free Visa)
In visa free travel, you can travel to any country without taking a visa. This applies if there is an agreement in this regard between the two countries, or if the country you are visiting has unilaterally opened its borders to foreign citizens.
There may be changes in the process of H1B visa soon
It is noteworthy that recently the US government had proposed important changes in the H1B Foreign Workers Program with the aim of providing relief to US working visa applicants. The changes being considered by the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) are likely to alter the selection process for H1B registration to reduce abuse and fraud. Currently, the more registrations an individual submits, the greater his or her chances of selection through the lottery.
