This could be a pretty big deal for foreign workers at TCS, Adobe, Infosys and the other major tech employers on the list. The government just froze their PERM applications, which are used in the green card sponsorship process. Microsoft, HCL, Capgemini, Wipro and Cognizant are also affected.

Adobe, Wipro, Capgemini, HCL, Cognizant, TCS, Microsoft and Infosys have been suspended from the federal PERM program. The Department of Labor says it will no longer accept new labor certification applications or process pending ones involving these companies.

Employees waiting for green cards at TCS, HCL, Microsoft, Capgemini, Infosys, Adobe, Wipro and Cognizant may be facing a major setback. The Department of Labor has suspended these employers from PERM processing, putting an important part of the employer-sponsored permanent residency process on hold.

Looks like the government is cracking down on green card sponsorship at some of the biggest names in tech. Capgemini, Microsoft, TCS, Cognizant, Adobe, HCL, Infosys and Wipro have all been suspended from PERM, meaning their employees could face delays in getting employer-sponsored green cards.
