Green card restrictions raise US contract workforce continuity risks, Vertage says

• Vertage's Nov. 12, 2026, analysis flags US contract workforce disruption risks from green card sponsorship restrictions at technology and services companies.
• Restrictions do not cancel existing H-1B status or green cards, but blocked sponsorship paths may affect extensions beyond the six-year H-1B limit.
• Employers should identify assignments nearing renewal or six-year limits within nine months, then establish replacement lead times.
• Hidden subcontractor exposure threatens continuity; regulated buyers need documented supplier oversight, while critical-role replacement options require testing before deployment.
• Nationality-based screening risks discrimination exposure; workforce decisions require consistent, documented rules.
