Indians are minority of population in the US, have struggled a lot and trying to come up. The quota based on country cap is discriminatory and should be challenged in court?
Did anyone who did not do a masters here (hence falls in the regular quota) got a h1b yet?
I saw there are a lot of openings in tiktok / bytedance SG, I would like to maximize my chance by choosing the right teams. Not sure how quota works among the teams but I have seen teams prefer to have locals in the JD. Anyone internal keen to have a chat? Malaysian YOE: 1 Looking for back-end ro...Read more

We should establish a minimum tax payment of one million dollars for visa holders before allowing them to convert to green card status. This measure would contribute to the growth of the USA and facilitate the creation of new jobs, with the possibility of subsidies. Each year, we grant citizenship t...Read more
Snowflake Computing is humiliating engineers by firing them for low performance every 3 months. The HRBP at Snowflake has been forcing senior managers to have a hard 10% Quota for Do Not Meets Expectations and forcefully giving it undeserving to IC3-Senior engineers.

Why is there infinite renewal of H1B visa if GC is in process ? it makes no sense, if govt wants 7% quota for GC, then dont extend visas indefinitely, this wil make it easy for everyone. This will also help reverse brain drain. this is the only way to fix GC problem imo. #workvisa #h1b

As I predicted in this post: Check out this post! "EB2/EB3 India quota full for this year (Work Visa)" https://us.teamblind.com/s/E35ecUpg EB2/EB3 quota is full for this year. USCIS has issued GC only to current GC holder spouses. This sucks big time. We have wasted yet another year in this endle...Read more
I had a massive argument with my bf last night, and we almost broke up. Fyi, both of us are Indian ,living in the US since 2013. Our visas and PDs (2017) are the same as well. We have been dating since 2020. Also,this topic has been discussed several times, but we could never reach an agreement. H...Read more

Two senior Indian government officials said on Wednesday they were briefed last week on a U.S. government plan to cap H-1B visas issued each year to Indians at between 10% and 15% of the annual quota. There is no current country-specific limit on the 85,000 H-1B work visas granted each year, and an ...Read more
So much H1B chatter here and with H1B almost impossible to get I am surprised not more companies and employees are trying for O-1 visa and that there isn’t more talk about this here. No quota and the requirements are actually pretty loose. Have you considered O-1?
I got an offer from facebook mpk and applied for H1B visa (currently not working in US). What are the options available if I fail to get picked in H1B lottery ? Does facebook reject the offer or will relocate to another country. Does facebook have separate quota for H1B lottery? Guys please provi...Read more
I just realized something. The Indian GC queue is big because of the quota by country of birth, etc. and also because Indians mostly marry Indians since if they married non Indians, the process would be quicker for them. So, why is that? #visa #marriage #relationships
1. Have you seen people getting on to get H1B visa while being on a L1 visa when they take transfer from India to US? I ask because people transfer with a simple Btech and generally no MS from US and MS students typically have a higher chance of getting H1b. 2. If I am on L1 visa, and go for a part...Read more
