Proposed Rule Would Eliminate The 60-Day Grace Period For Many Temporary Work Visa Categories

The Department of Homeland Security has proposed eliminating the 60-day grace period that currently allows workers in H-1B, L-1, O-1, E, and TN visa categories to remain in the United States after their employment ends. If finalized, this rule would require immediate departure or status change the day after employment termination, fundamentally altering how employers and foreign workers manage job transitions and creating significant compliance challenges for both parties.
