More than 12,000 Indian technology professionals have returned from the United States to India so far in 2026, according to staffing firm Xpheno.

US Vice President JD Vance has defended investigations into suspected H-1B visa fraud, while several major technology companies have reportedly faced interruptions in green card processing. But returning to India brings its own challenges. Xpheno highlights the salary gap between US and Indian technology jobs, as well as difficulties for professionals adjusting their career and family expectations after returning home.
