America is an amazing place to live if you do not have to be stuck in the same place for decades waiting for a green card.

- 6ak74rfy 8y agoThis. The visa scene is US is fickle and very unfriendly even for folks in high tech companies. For instance, the Green Card process is same for a software developer (no matter what company she is in) and a taxi driver. Of course, I don't have anything against taxi drivers, but I do believe education and professional qualifications should play some role in the Green Card process.
- riyadparvez 8y agoI think you have better chance getting a green card if you're an illegal immigrant than if you're on H1-B.
- swebs 8y agoLol, that's because H1-B is a temporary work visa, not an immigration visa.
- fooker 8y agoH1B is a dual intent visa, explicitly allowing you immigrate.
- distant_hat 8y agoH1-B is dual intent.
- fooker 8y agoYep, sneak in (or overstay), marry an US citizen. Alternatively, create a media sob story and you're golden.
