According to a lawyer representing several Indian-owned subcontractors and visa employees, Indian-born CEOs are liquidating their businesses and leaving for India to avoid being accused of fraud in the yearly visa lottery to import H-1B foreign contract employees.
Rahul Reddy, an immigration attorney in Texas, said: “So yes, they are being prosecuted, they are being investigated, and that is the reason why a number of them have begun packing up their belongings and closing their businesses.”
Reddy made his remarks in response to questions from Indian grads who are concerned about the federal inquiries into the H-1B scam in the yearly lottery for 85,000 new H-1B work licenses. The work permits are utilized to bring in lower-paying immigrants to replace American college graduates in high-demand positions.
Although the H-1B visas place them on a protracted, indentured-service road to American jobs, visas, and full citizenship, a number of Indian graduates in India enable the scam.
However, a large number of other Indian college graduates in the United States are opposed to the lottery fraud due to how it interferes with their three legitimate opportunities to convert their “Optional Practical Training” (OPT) job permits into an H-1B visa, which offers a valuable route to American citizenship.
One of the Indian graduates tells Breitbart News, “This is perhaps the most vital point. Graduates are pursuing STEM OPT work authorizations here. They are employed by a legal firm and are making their last or preliminary effort to win the H-1B lottery.” The graduate, who identified himself as “Manohar coming from the Midwest,” said that they were the ones who were impacted.
Manohar remarked, “I know individuals near me who are doing this,” adding:
“They applied to the genuine employer at which they currently work and filed an additional five or six applications with a consultant labor broker because they are currently in their final year of the STEM OPT. In order to apply for the lottery, which they are aware is a scam and that everyone is aware of, they received a fraudulent job offer.”
“On a subreddit group, at least 500 people have been informing the government about these cases. They claimed to be looking into them, but there has been no change at all,” he continued.
“We are working together with the State Dept. and DHS to make it simpler for migrants who have these kinds of skills that we believe will truly help to execute these new policies, so that we can get them in faster,” a top White House official stated on May 15.
Instead, it’s more probable that the DHS’s fraud probe aims to exert government authority over the procedure. In other areas, Mayorkas defends his legal modifications to southern migration as an effort to replace cartel-run smuggling networks with safer, official legal routes to American jobs and housing.
The federal government’s silence about the H-1B scam is also a diplomatic courtesy to Narendra Modi, the prime leader of India. He supports the H-1B program wholeheartedly since it brings enormous income to Indians as well as India. In exchange for enabling more Indian graduates to accept more U.S. employment, authorities will disclose high-tech sales to India during his visit with Biden on June 22 at a high-status state banquet.
