A nova seleção proposta para o H-1B ponderada pelo salário significa que, efetivamente, apenas os salários de Nível 4 se qualificam. — Muitos consultores de TI da Infosys e HCL são mal pagos, mas atendem ao salário de Nível 4 (37%) — Médicos (12%), professores (4%) e pesquisadores de BigTech (10%) não atendem — Apenas 18% dos ~80k desenvolvedores de software por ano fazem a seleção Não tem o efeito pretendido de forma alguma.

🚨 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.
