US Suspends Cognizant Green Card Filings Amid Visa Fraud Investigation

The US Department of Labour has suspended PERM green card filings for Cognizant following an ongoing investigation into alleged visa abuse.

The suspension impacts thousands of Indian employees currently awaiting permanent residency processing within the tech giant's US operations.

Cognizant is cooperating with federal authorities to address the compliance concerns, though the duration of the filing freeze remains uncertain.
