Can't decide what I think about the potential H1-B overhauls. Can say I really dislike the Tatas and Wipros of the world
My GF says when she was H1B, she was paid less than the previous cap. I think this may only apply to one class of H1B?
-
-
was she working for a university or some other research institution?
-
High school teacher. Did have some research alliliation exemption to quota, now that I think about it.
-
yes H1-Bs to educational institutions/etc don't count towards the numerical cap.
-
I don't know if raising the minimum wage is a bad idea then, if it won't affect teachers.
-
There are as many H1B apps. from China & India as RoW, so removing per-country caps would affect diversity, IIUC.
-
there's no per-country cap on H1-Bs.
-
Ugh, I meant the per-country cap for green cards, not H1B.
-
No per country cap for GC, but you may wait longer. See https://travel.state.gov/content/visas/en/law-and-policy/bulletin/2017/visa-bulletin-for-february-2017.html …
