Wrong. Read carefully. What I'm saying is that people who should not be on HB-1 are getting visas and people who truly deserve HB-1, aren't getting it.

- frequentnapper 7y agoWhy should your piano playing friend deserve a visa? I don't care about listening to her live.
- gfosco 7y agoThe market seems to disagree. There isn't a lot of work available for concert pianists.
- jbay808 7y agoI guess, H1-B visa is an example of artificial scarcity; the government could just give your deserving friend a visa without taking one away from a software job shop. There's not really a finite supply of them, other than what the government chooses. If an administration is cracking down on software shops, that doesn't necessarily mean it's because they want to make those visas easier to get for anyone else.
- belltaco 7y agoThat does not make much sense. H1B visas (you keep saying HB-1 but there is no visa called HB-1 so I am not entirely sure which visa you're talking about) needs to be sponsored by a company, they are not just given to people. If a company is willing to to hire her, maybe she can try applying to any US company. If not, there is no way to say she "deserves" it when it's only in your eyes, i.e apparently she or you are not able to convince a company to hire her. There are also EB-1 green cards that might qualify her since she has a PHD, but they're usually for the STEM field. I have no idea why this is relevant to H1B visas which serve a different purpose.
