Any proposal? They change the rules almost yearly to try to patch loopholes. What do you suggest?

  > They change the rules almost yearly to try to patch loopholes I haven't seen much in this way. As for what I would propose (if the quotas would be kept) - Go through the applications by higher salaries first - Limit the number of hires per company by number of current employees (something like 1 H1-B for every 5 employees - as an example) - Make the visa transferable after a while

    - This would advantage even more the companies that can already more easily hire talent. Also, would you have audits to make sure salaries are not changed 2 months after hire? - Would it work to hire 5 front desk managers to hire 1 engineer on H1B? - It already is. Also fairly cheap, just a few grands for the hiring company, cheaper than recruiter fee. Companies will always find a loophole. Smarter people than you and me (like, law smart) will start cranking at it to help them.

      Yes the rules would have to be more tightly specified (for example, keeping the same salary for a year, or the employee count be for the same position) Especially in the US where people make a competition of adhering to the letter but not the spirit of the law (explains a lot about how the US sees GDPR)
