Indians Return Home from UK, US Amid Rising Visa Costs and Stricter Rules

A growing number of Indians living and working in the UK and US are returning to India due to escalating visa costs and tightening immigration policies. The UK has revised its skilled worker visa requirements at least twice in the past two years, raising the minimum salary threshold significantly. The threshold climbed from approximately $35,409 in 2024 to around $52,303 by April, and further to nearly $56,358 by July 2025. While these returnees are choosing to come back, many face the trade-off of accepting lower salaries in the Indian job market. The trend reflects broader global shifts in immigration policy that are prompting skilled Indian professionals to reconsider their options abroad.
