De nieuwe voorgestelde loon-gewogen H-1B selectie betekent effectief dat alleen Level 4 lonen kwalificeren. — Veel IT-consultants van Infosys, HCL worden laag betaald maar voldoen aan het Level 4 loon (37%) — Artsen (12%), leraren (4%) en onderzoekers van BigTech (10%) doen dat niet — Slechts 18% van de ~80k softwareontwikkelaars per jaar haalt de selectie Heeft totaal niet het beoogde effect.

🚨 HUGE Immigration News: Trump just proposed a big change to the H-1B. No more lottery, but weighted selection by wage. Based on your job code and location, your base salary %ile will slot you into one of 4 groups. 85k H-1Bs are selected in decreasing order IV > III > II > I. If there are more applicants than slot, lottery happens within a group. The data from LCA applications, those selected into the H-1B, shows 13% level IV and 24% III from ~480k apps. This means mostly level IV will fill up the 85k cap. This has about 30% chance of being a law by 2027. What does this all mean? I outlined the big consequences of this bill below.
