India, July 27 -- Many instances of H-1B visa holders receiving Notices To Appear (NTAs) within their 60-day grace period have started to surface, as reported by Greenberg Traurig. Under previous rules, H-1B visa holders were allowed a 60-day grace period to stay in the United States in case their employment got terminated either voluntarily or involuntarily.
