Payment of out-of-state tuition
In most states, H-1B workers and their dependents do not qualify for in-state tuition regardless of the amount of time spent in the US[citation needed]. However, for more than a decade, a few states such as California, New York, Washington and Texas have extended in-state tuition to H-1B workers and dependents. Typically the decision to offer in-state tuition to H-1B and H4 residents is taken as a result of an adverse state court decision that uses the precedent established for G-4 visas in the Supreme Court decision in TOLL v. MORENO, 441 U.S. 458 (1979).
