Wolf in the sheep's clothing. When GovernMint says something you should look for whats hidden in the policy.
1. So if I want to change companies now I have to wait for few months to get the new petition in hand. Tell me I can't travel to my home country during this period!
This is essentially friction to job changing. This is clearly against the current administration's policy of Murica first and no to cheap labor.
2. On OPT ? Wait for unknown period of time to know if H1B gets picked in lottery or if it gets approved. Better go home.
3. So far FB, Google etc are always happy doing premium processing where as cheapo Indian companies avoided it. This is another big boost to cheap labor importers.

- mynameisvlad 10y ago> Wait for unknown period of time to know if H1B gets picked in lottery You find out if you were picked for the lottery at about the same time for both standard and premium.
- awa 10y agoFrankly, premium processing is abused. I recently switched jobs and just needed a transfer application acknowledgement to start the new job, however, the company offered to pay for premium processing and I gladly took it. Honestly, they should raise the prices to $5000 with exceptions for financial hardships(they already have this) to weed out non-essential usage of premium processing.
- praneshp 10y ago"I recently switched jobs and just needed a transfer application acknowledgement" There is nothing called H1b transfer. It's a brand new application with some extra features like no lottery, no wait-till-Oct1, etc. IMO, all H1b fees should be increased by $5000 and processed in 15 days.
