00:00Jono, really this decision did send absolute shockwaves around the world. It actually sent panic.
00:08It did and there's videos that have emerged of people who have disembarked flights and had their luggage taken off flights
00:13because they were so concerned about their re-entry to the US that they didn't want to leave.
00:17And I guess when something is rushed and it's a bullet point format, it's difficult to take away any real knowledge from it.
00:24So all the people were getting bits and drips and drabs of information was that this was changing.
00:29Now it would be 100,000 US dollars. Maybe if you left the country you couldn't get back in again.
00:33I think it was a knee-jerk reaction that was probably unnecessary.
00:36IT firms as a result and Indian IT firms, as you rightly pointed out, saw a tumble in the stock market as well.
00:41So there was a mix of that. India's government had then come to the fore just on the information that they've seen,
00:46which is very, very limited info about the change to the H1B visas.
00:51They've said this is a humanitarian issue. You know, there's families who may be in concern of that.
00:56And now that we have slightly more information, but still not an entire picture, we know that that may not be the case.
01:01And it's visas going forward from this moment forward that it will affect.
01:04So immigration lawyers are looking into it and it will take a bit of time, just like anything this administration does, to dissect it.
01:11It tends to be laws in tweets is what we're seeing.
01:13If it's 160 characters, let's get it out there and let everybody see what it is.
01:16And then we'll dissect it afterwards and see what the ins and outs of it are.
01:20And what we're now finding out is that, yes, there's an increase in the amount that it's going to cost to obtain one of these H1B visas,
01:26of which I think it's 70% plus our Indian nationals.
01:29And we now know the amount is realistically probably in the figure of 80 times more than what it was,
01:3460 to 80 times more than what it was previously.
01:37And these visas were there for skilled workers.
01:40With this administration, it's kind of keeping true to what they said.
01:44This is an immigration issue of sorts, and it's jobs for Americans in America.
01:50That's what Trump said, right? That's what we had in the pre-election.
01:53A couple of years ago, we've got to try to get the kids to do.
01:56To do it again, we'll see you next week.
01:59I hope you want to see the kids that have a lot with your ability to walk from past!
02:02That's what you're going to be looking for.
02:04I hope you enjoyed seeing the kids.
02:05It's funny.
02:06You're not even though not that you're going to be in the first time.
02:08I need to make your kids.
02:09I keep learning more about them.
02:10I feel like that you've got some of your kids here.
02:13Today, it's half a day.
