A lot of us immigrants to the US in IT, how will HR 1044 impact IT Servivce Companies in the US?
Will be good for India and China nationals.
Lets put it this way. It might do right by the people who have been legally waiting for almost a decade in this list.
Sure, but there is a huge backlog
Its not gonna pass.
For everyone else - effectively a green card ban till 2033
Its first cum first serve basis. Whoever is in the list, gets it. It is not about nationality.
Wow that's bad, US have enough workforce by itself?
It does go on to day that it is going to reserve 15% of EB-2, EB-3 and EB-5 visas for applicants not from the two countries with the largest amount of applicants. It doesn't say anything about if they are going to increase or decrease the amount of visas given though.
Yea and I think it is wise and thought out bill. But still i dont see it passing in the senate
Yeah, probably not. It's a shame though because it's a rare moment where Congress actually produced something decent.
For me it basically means no GC and get out of country in 3 years. Very sad! Unfair..
It means those who have GC cannot get a free pass.. right now most jobs require GC or citizenship and even if you know nothing , your GC can get you hired with lucrative offers .. same is not the case for those on visa
Not knowing and getting hired... This kind of bullshit has got us to where we currently are. Stop friggin’ rigging the system and then think justice is not served..
Probably bring down demand as Indians swarm in willing to work for peanuts.
Apparently, Indians are the richest (by country) community in USA. Go figure!!
I’m talking relative to other software devs, when other communities are too busy killing each other or pursuing non-stem fields, I’m not impressed. When they’re all actually competing, I’ll be impressed.
All other nationals on h1b already got their GC. This bill helps to get GC to Indians/Chinese who are unfairly left out from 2009. Also, this would free them from enslavement by employers who are taking advantage of those on limbo by paying less.
You forgot to mention that all other nationals now will be left out till 2033. And those on L visas will be basically kicked out of the country. Unlike swarms of Indians on their infinite H1s
Exactly, law was broke, and they are fixing now. Stand in line like everyone else. Why should there be certain bias against few countries? End of day companies only care about skills, they don't care where they are from. At least now, current administration decided to fix things before it's too late. If this would have been addressed 10 years ago when similar bill was originally proposed, these problems would have been avoided or minimized.
my id will tell
TC?
