How would you recommend the government address HB1 fraud, where people on HB1s are hired by temp agencies, and thus have a much lower prevailing wage than US employees?

- AstraeaM 9y agoAs far as I can tell, that is not working because outsourcing companies are getting a significant percentage of the HB1 visas. https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2015/11/06/us/outsourcing-companies-dominate-h1b-visas.html https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2015/11/06/us/outsourcin...
- proberts 9y agoThat doesn't change the analysis. The LCA/wage documentation must still be maintained at a central location and this documentation can be audited to ensure compliance even for remote workers.
