Trump admin to tighten the screws on H-1B visas, half a million Indians at risk of being deported
- The Department of Homeland Security of the US is said to be considering new regulations that would prevent H-1B visa extensions.
- This comes as part of fulfilling President Trump's promises made during the 2016 campaign.
- The action might cause more than 500,000 skilled workers to lose their jobs and return to India.

Fair next.

H1B was meant to bring highly qualified professionals into the country not to import cheap labor.

A number of the people I work with are most definitely not "cheap labour".

Not entirely related, but somewhat interesting: Kushner Cos. is currently under investigation for potentially illegally obtaining EB-5 visas for Chinese citizens.

Wrong.

This is just H1B visas which need to fucking go.

Trump is correct on this one.

Stopped clock and all that jazz.

Illegal immigrants aren't taking jobs from Americans, they work the ones that nobody wants to do. The people taking jobs are legal immigrants. They don't just take jobs, but after getting American-quality training and experience they go back home and steal our shit in the process.

You do know that a new proposed requirement for the H1B is to get paid at least 130k a year right? How is that cheap?

This is just Trump wanting to get rid of legal Indians.

Also it seems most posters in this topic are Trump supporters... as also to get a H1B you need to fullfill many requirements including proving there is no US citizen that can fill and the job position at the time of hiring.

Keyword: proposed. Such action has not gone through Congress and to the president's desk as of yet.

Which is false. It sounds good in theory but in practice companies hire who they want to hire and simply weasel their way around poorly enforced requirements.

This.

almost all companies applying for H1B visa make the application for the job as difficult to find as possible, and even if you do find it, they have an extremely long list of absurd requirements for terrible pay and generally make the proposition so bad that no sane person would apply.

Entry level position: 5 yrs experience required -> "I want H1B"

that isn't law, and if it was it would also have the effect of undermining the H1B program, generally a good idea

as kilbotz, chromatic, and others have stated, H1B is a program many employers use to keep wages for very high salary-demanding jobs suppressed.

a salary is only high if it's high relative to the market. the positions H1B jobs tend to fill are $150k-$200k software engineering positions.

I wonder how much this will even matter, though. I know of a lot of non-U.S. developers that didn't even try to get into the U.S., they just work remotely for U.S. companies, charge 1/2 what a U.S. software developer makes and remain in their own country.


generally speaking the kinds of work H1B is used for can't be done 100% remotely
