Washington : Thousands of Indian technology workers and their families are losing sleep over the imminent deportation of laid-off H-1B professionals because, under current law, they must leave the country within 60 days of losing their employment status.
According to a statement released by the Foundation For India and Indian Diaspora Studies (FIIDS) on Friday, "this has a humanitarian impact on them as their families, including their US-born children, are uprooted abruptly," and those who were laid off in the earlier months are now running out of time.
