Immigration experts have criticized Immigration Voice’s<\/strong> stance on new H-1B visas for Indian nationals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Indian American lobby group<\/strong> has urged the government of US President Joe Biden to not issue new H-1B visas <\/strong>to those Indian nationals not effectively in the nation, till the existing limits on green cards<\/strong> \u2013 permanent residence permits (PERMs<\/strong>) – are done away with.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Indians face the longest wait times for an employment-based green card<\/strong>. Every year, the United States issues 85,000<\/strong> new H-1B visas, of which almost 70%<\/strong> are given to Indian nationals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These H-1B visas permit workers to enter the United States<\/strong> to work in high-skilled occupations. Regularly with the intention of ultimately receiving lawful permanent residency<\/strong>. But per-country limits result in Indians nationals receiving only 8,400 of the 120,000<\/strong> employment-based green cards available each year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“Immigration Voice is presently calling the Biden government <\/strong>to utilize its power under INA Section 212(f) t<\/strong>o exclude any new individual born in India who are not currently in the United States lawfully from getting a new H-1B visa for the first time in Fiscal Year 2022<\/strong>. Moreover, Immigration Voice calls to quit giving such new H-1B visas <\/strong>until the discriminatory per county limits on Employment-Based Green Cards<\/strong> are finally lifted and immigrants from India <\/strong>are no longer treated as indentured servants in the United States,\u201d said Aman Kapoor<\/strong>, president of Immigration Voice, in a statement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Immigration experts demand to restrict issue of new H-1B visas<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Immigration experts<\/strong> have, however, questioned this rationale.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I don’t understand how blocking the entry of new H-1B workers<\/strong> will hasten their green card process<\/strong>. The two have not corresponded,” said Poorvi Chothani, managing partner at LawQuest, an immigration law firm<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“It sure is a broken system where individuals are stuck in the green card <\/strong>queue for decades. Yet not giving new temporary visas<\/strong> won’t assist them with getting their green cards quicker. And it is not a given that all H-1B workers will be on a green card track when they arrive in the US<\/strong>,\u201d Chothani said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The immigration lobby group<\/strong> has called for a rationalization of the green card process. To \u2018protect future Indian immigrants <\/strong>from the industrialized process of wholesale exploitation.\u2019<\/p>\n\n\n\n

[Maintaining H-1B and L Status While Waiting for a Green Card<\/span><\/a>]<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

A few families face separation once their kids turn 21<\/strong>, as they no longer become eligible to stay in the country as dependents minus a green card. There are more than 800,000 Indians <\/strong>in line for an employment-based green card \u2013 almost 70% <\/strong>of the 1.2 million<\/strong> backlogs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As indicated by a paper by the US think-tank CATO <\/strong>Institute. Indian employer-sponsored applicants face an eight-decade<\/strong> wait for green cards.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Attempts to pass a new immigration bill <\/strong>that would considerably ease the backlog have not yet been successful.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
