The government has a quota for how many immigrants it will let in per year. That’s why you need to win the lottery. If you lose the lottery, the quota has already been hit. The only reason the government doesn’t give “permission” is if it has hit the limit for that year.
Which brings me back to my original comment, you’re advocating for unlimited immigration.
- mrtksn 3y agoQuota is just one reason for not being able to employ whoever you want. Just because you can point out a reason, the reality doesn’t change. Nothing happens without a reason. However, I agree that it’s nicer than European/British/Australian/Canadian point based system. At least US don’t try to pretend that it’s about skills.
- huytersd 3y agoQuota is virtually the only reason besides background checks. Unless you’re referring to the requirement for a bachelors degree which in my opinion is perfectly reasonable. In that case the company won’t even put in the application.
