So pretty much most HN commenters, then.
- kykeonaut 2y agoSeems like implicit bias. "Many people in my circle have an H1-B visa, thus it is far from impossible to get one."
- uberman 2y agoH1-b visas are non-imigrant visas...
- programjames 2y agoI'm perfectly aware most people would fail this easy task, but a thousand years ago most people would fail to read. Just because it's easy, doesn't mean most people will succeed.
- programjames 2y agoOnly ~5,000 people get E1 visas each year. That's 0.003% of the people who want to immigrate. There are surely many, many more people that are highly skilled and would be beneficial to have in America. Maybe it would be "easy" for you and your friends to get an E1 visa, but it should still be much easier to get a permanent visa for skilled work.
