Staff and academics on H visas are not included in the furlough program. Individuals holding any other visa types will be included in the furlough/reduction. The H visa is job and site specific; once approved, the employee is eligible to work at the job for which that visa was approved and any changes in terms of and conditions of employment require additional submissions for federal agency approval.
