Why did Trump administration suspend h1b premium processing for such long time? To cause trouble to legal immigrants? Changing companies has been a huge pain in the ass due to it. So many people have been affected by it. When will it resume?
Hasn't it happened in the past.
Legal immigrants were abusing the system. President Donald Trump is trying to fix the system.
Knowing trump sometime between Feb and 2024.
Whenever premium processing is suspended the regular processing timelines usually improves. I transferred during last H1b premium suspended and got my approval within 1.5 months in regular processing despite of avg regular processing time of 6-7 months
Oh that will be good if it happens again now
But that’s not the case this time, USCIS website is still showing that they are processing Feb 2018 applications.
To benefit the outsourcing firms that can't afford the premium. Also to keep everyone's wage low
I got an offer that had an increase of over 70k in TC but can’t start on it because of this reason. I’m sure there’re others like this too
Amazon are you indian? You seem to know way too much about how h1b works 😁
Let's assume you're right about everything. What would happen to the American tech industry if we suddenly deported such a significant portion of our work force? The American people aren't producing enough programmers by themselves. These large companies would just open office overseas and employee the engineers there. Then America would lose that tax revenue, and all there would be fewer jobs available for Americans. From a purely financial perspective this is not a logical move.
Logical or not.. Tech industry is not raising as much noise as the employees who cannot switch their jobs.. Not on anybody's side here. But i am not sure if that is creating that big an impact.
In that case they could have done it even before this happened, right? Later edit. Reread the second para now.. Got ur point. Hope it is true.
The H1-B visas have been abused by the body shops for years. If things don’t get better, Trump can escalate by suspending the visas altogether. As we speak, the US just closed the border with Mexico at the San Diego POE
TN visa is for Canadians. You feel threatened by Candians working in the US? O visa is Einstein visa and requires PhD and paper published in major journals. They are not even in the same league as you.
PhD degree mill? Have you ever done PhD? Which accredited school in the US is a PhD degree mill? Only excellent artists, musicians, scientists, nobel prize winners and some high level executives get O visa. Even Melania Trump couldn't get O visa. Stop being brainwashed by Breitbart
Because he and his supporters lied about liking legal Immigrants.
I doubt they really lied. Desis just assumed that since they're coming legally and are engineers that america should lay the red carpet.
