Introduction
An immigration policy is a policy within the state, which deals with the transfer of persons cross its boarder country, but particularly to those who are inclined to work and to remain in the country. Immigration policies can have no restriction over foreigner to migrate. U.S. immigration policy is influenced by several factors that hinder the development of effective, strategic decisions in this area. Such factors include, in particular, the impact of volatile public mood, lack of understanding of social and economic nature of immigration, the current practice of the indigenous population of the country favored at the expense of foreign visitors (nativism), as well as a variety of narrow political considerations.

H-1B Visa Program enables American industry to have foreign labor force at work and reduce their costs.
