Otherwise, it will resolve to “No”.

Any official court action that temporarily halts or permanently blocks implementation—e.g., a temporary restraining order, preliminary injunction, stay, or substantially similar order—will qualify. Filings, hearings, or statements without an operative order will not qualify.

On September 19, 2025, Donald Trump announced a $100,000 payment requirement for H-1B visa petitions in the Presidential Proclamation “Restriction on Entry of Certain Nonimmigrant Workers,” set to take effect on September 21, 2025 at 12:01 a.m. EDT.

This market will resolve to “Yes” if Donald Trump signs any federal legislation or performs any executive action which pauses, delays, or removes the $100,000 H-1B visa petition fee by October 31, 2025, 11:59 PM ET. Otherwise this market will resolve to “No”.

Actions which remove the $100,000 H-1B visa petition fee will qualify even if other conditions, exceptions, or requirements for H-1B visas remain in place. However, lowering the fee below $100,000 without removing it will not qualify.

As it pertains to pauses, delays, or removals of the $100,000 fee, judicial or other actions not initiated by the Trump administration, which ban or block the listed fee, will not alone qualify. However, if the Trump administration — including any executive branch agency such as the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) or the Department of State — pauses, delays, removes, or otherwise ceases enforcement of the listed fee in compliance with a court order, this will qualify even if not publicly announced or formalized by legislation or an executive order.

Any action which is officially enacted within the market’s time frame will qualify, regardless of when the removal goes into effect.

This market’s primary resolution source will be official information from the Trump administration, however a consensus of credible information will also be used.
