Cant copy paste the email, just a gist of it: Fragomen’s govt affairs team is stating that a presidential proclamation can come anytime now on the ban of entry of above 4 visas. Exemption: health care workers, those engaged in COVID-19 research, essential to food supply chain and those whose employers have made efforts to recruit US workers. Effective date of the ban is unknown but it could impact anyone entering on or after June 12th. Unknown: if it will affect individuals who are already employed in one of the above categories and are outside for business or personal reasons. They are urging everyone to come back if you can or reach out to your company’s immigration team immediately. #workvisa #h1b #rfe
Holy cow
Indian : that’s true
they allow visitor visa?
Why would Fragomen send an email on visitor visa?
Ok, no info on that in the email.
how do u read w/o access? disable js ain't work
Just copy the title and then paste it in Google search. The search result will have another WSJ link that might not need the access. Also, other websites would've copied it by now. It works 90% of the times!
Most probably the EO will be quashed in no time since business will not be happy about it.
Well not if they pull unemployment card.
I dearly believe this h1 thing to be over so issue if they use unemployment card (I am on h1)
Wtf! Time to pack up and get out of this torture.
thats exactly what I was thinking, enough of this shit.
Ya thought the same! If they don’t want us I’m leaving
US Embassy in India has been closed since March and no visa stamping available. No way to come back.
Yeah, this is really bad..they should at least open dropbox for valid cases and allow people to come back.
Everyday I see #OpenUSEmbassyIndia on Twitter with folks asking to open atleast dropbox. But it's falling on deaf ears with no response. No hopes left.
The orange guy tryanna win that election.
Exactly, and he is probably gonna lift it in a couple of months or just after the elections.
I really wonder how all the tech companies will react when things like this become a constant. Once they go offshore, they are definitely never going to come back.
Nope, not in the email atleast!
Lmao ur name is so rude and racist. Are u a Trump voter?
Btw are you hiring?
Yea his team there is now an open req
Come back ? How? If they are stuck in countries like India that are not flying international flights?
Repatriation flights are running
H1B folks with Indian citizenship may not qualify to be repatriated to the US? Aren’t those for US citizens stuck in India or other countries?
