特朗普政府将于周四公布有关美国工作签证项目被指滥用的新发现，副总统领导的欺诈特别工作组、劳工部（DOL）和司法部（DOJ）预计将共同就涉及H-1B和J-1签证的问题发表讲话，CNN援引熟悉计划的消息人士报道称。尚未公开详细说明具体发现和执法行动。但此次计划中的简报正值联邦机构加强对雇主、劳务中介及其他外籍劳工项目参与者的审查之际。
The Trump administration is set to unveil new findings on alleged abuse of US work-visa programs on Thursday, with the Vice President’s fraud task force, the Department of Labor (DOL) and the Department of Justice (DOJ) expected to jointly address concerns involving H-1B and J-1 visas, CNN reported, citing a source familiar with the plans. The precise findings and enforcement actions have not yet been publicly detailed. But the planned briefing comes as federal agencies intensify scrutiny of employers, labor brokers and other participants in foreign-worker programs.
因此，此次会议预计将不仅关注个别签证案件，而是聚焦于联邦调查人员是否已在美国允许雇主雇佣外籍劳工的项目中发现更广泛的欺诈或滥用模式。议程可能包括哪些内容？H-1B签证欺诈很可能成为核心议题。劳工部监察长办公室7月曾表示，已就H-1B和PERM系统启动重大调查，理由是涉嫌存在欺诈性申请、工资回扣安排以及雇主和劳务中介之间的勾结。
The meeting is therefore expected to focus not simply on individual visa cases but on whether federal investigators have identified broader patterns of fraud or abuse in programs that allow US employers to hire foreign workers. What could be on the agenda?H-1B visa fraud is likely to be a central focus. The DOL's Office of Inspector General said in July that it had launched a major investigation into H-1B and PERM systems, citing alleged fraudulent applications, wage-kickback arrangements and schemes involving employers and labor brokers.US to make online filing mandatory for many immigration forms: What applicants need to know about the digital shiftIn August, DOL investigators also carried out field checks in Dallas at locations linked to companies with hundreds of approved H-1B petitions.
美国将对许多移民表格实行在线提交强制：申请人需了解的数字化转型信息。8月，劳工部调查人员还在达拉斯对与数百份获批H-1B申请相关联的公司地点进行了实地检查。该机构表示，一些办事处几乎没有显示出正在运营的迹象。司法部可能会提供因这些案件而产生的刑事调查或起诉的细节。4月，联邦检察官宣布，在一起涉及虚假声称外籍劳工将在加州大学项目受雇的H-1B欺诈案中，被告认罪。
The agency said some offices showed little evidence of active operations. The DOJ could provide details of criminal investigations or prosecutions arising from such cases. In April, federal prosecutors announced guilty pleas in an H-1B fraud case involving false claims that foreign workers would be employed on University of California projects.
调查人员包括司法部、国务院、国土安全部调查局、财政部以及美国公民及移民服务局的欺诈官员。J-1签证的滥用也可能受到审查。
Investigators included the DOJ, State Department, Homeland Security Investigations, Treasury and USCIS fraud officials.J-1 visa abuse could also come under scrutiny.

Trump administration proposes $70,000 OPT fee for international students: What changes and why Indians may be hit hardOPT fee adds another layer to the crackdownThe briefing comes just a day after the administration proposed one of its most dramatic changes affecting international students seeking US work experience.
国土安全部提议对F-1学生首次参加选择性实践培训（OPT）收取7万美元费用，后续OPT参与收取3万美元。该提议称，这些费用旨在打击欺诈、加强移民体系诚信并保护美国工人。该提议将把费用义务放在为学生推荐OPT的教育机构身上，尽管国土安全部表示学校可以从学生或雇主处追回成本。OPT对国际学生尤为重要，因为它提供了一条与其专业领域相关的临时就业途径，并可成为进入更长期基于就业的移民管道的一部分。
The Department of Homeland Security has proposed a $70,000 fee for an F-1 student's initial participation in Optional Practical Training (OPT) and $30,000 for subsequent OPT participation. The proposal says the fees are intended to combat fraud, strengthen immigration-system integrity and protect US workers. The proposal would place the fee obligation on the educational institution recommending the student for OPT, although DHS says schools could recover the cost from students or employers.OPT is particularly significant for international students because it provides a route to temporary employment related to their field of study and can form part of the pipeline into longer-term employment-based immigration.H-1B scrutiny has already widenedThe Thursday briefing also follows a September executive action directing federal agencies to strengthen coordination and scrutiny of the H-1B program.
H-1B审查已扩大周四的简报也紧随9月的一项行政行动之后，该行动指示联邦机构加强对H-1B项目的协调和审查。白宫表示，政府希望对存在美国工人可能被裁员风险升高的H-1B申请进行加强审查。政府还将对通过海外入境的某些H-1B工作者的10万美元付款要求延长至2027年9月21日，同时单独推出旨在赋予高薪H-1B职位更大权重的变动。更广泛的执法推进正通过由副总统JD·万斯领导的打击欺诈特别工作队进行协调。
The White House said the administration wants enhanced scrutiny of H-1B applications where there is a heightened risk that American workers could be laid off. The administration has also extended its $100,000 payment requirement for certain H-1B workers seeking entry from abroad through September 21, 2027, while separately introducing changes aimed at giving greater weight to higher-paid H-1B positions. The broader enforcement push is being coordinated through the Task Force to Eliminate Fraud, chaired by Vice President JD Vance.
白宫成立特别工作组的命令赋予其改善欺诈检测、加强各机构间信息共享以及破坏欺诈网络的任务。劳工部和司法部是参与的机构之一。
The White House order establishing the task force gives it a mandate to improve fraud detection, strengthen information sharing among agencies and disrupt fraud networks. The Department of Labor and Justice Department are among the agencies participating.
