I know a ton of entrepreneurial Indian, Chinese immigrants with advanced degrees (MS/PhDs) from MIT, Stanford, UW etc who are sick and tired of waiting years for their GC (average of 5-7 years wait), so they are not tied to the fate of the employer for their stay in US. Imagine, freeing them for these visa shackles, so they are free to pursue their own ventures, without have to worry about getting kicked out of this country
- zugheliang 14y agoAgreed. As I personally can ratify, it takes a great deal of intellectual and emotional investment to be tied to the fate of our employers. The gamble impacts every aspect of your life, from having a family to buying a car or house. I am incredibly thankful to this country for the opportunity, but I think I've proven I am a good candidate for a Visa that provides me peace of mind.
