The US Department of State advisory said dependents (spouses and children) will also be allowed to travel along with primary visa holders.

On June 22, US President Donald Trump had signed a proclamation that suspended non-immigrant visas such as H-1B till the end of the year in the aftermath of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Forcing employers to replace employees in this situation may cause financial hardship,” said the advisory.

Grey Siskind, an immigration attorney, said in a tweet that this will allow H-1Bs stuck abroad to get visas if they are returning to jobs they have held in the US before departing.

The Trump administration granted an exception from the ban for “travel by applicants seeking to resume ongoing employment in the US in the same position with the same employer and visa classification”.
