I have spent 18 years in this country and am still on a H1 due to bad luck (was at a company that had layoffs which meant my GC application got audited) and terrible immigration laws (restricting green cards by country of birth). My friends who went to grad school with me are now citizens. Some folks that came on a L1 visa used a loophole to become citizens. And am still on a visa despite being valuable to my company and getting paid top dollar (top 0.5%). I can't make any long-term decisions (regretting my decision to upgrade my home 2 years back). My child is a US citizen and is old enough to realize that she wants to live here. Not sure why I have to be in this predicament. This is a rant. Not all H1-Bs are created equal. The law applies to everyone equally though.
