Hey @VFSGlobal did you ever check if this stupid on-screen keyboard worked? Ever heard of password managers? Why do you have to take perfectly working technology called a "keyboard" & add a #dumb on-screen version? It is completely broken, doesn't let me type. #vfsglobal #Broken

Last major recession in the United States was during 2007-2010. You can see that reflected in how long the H1B cap remained open. From FY2010 to FY2012 it was open for 200+ days. H1B lottery started again for FY2014. You can see this reflected in the number of I140 approved for
** Action Item ** I think the only current bill already in the congress which has a chance of passing and which can provide relief to high-skilled workers who are in never ending #greencardbacklog just because of country of birth discrimination is #HR1535. It's a simple,

80% of work based greencards are awarded to 30% of petitions (all from ROW). Only 20% go to India/China despite contributing 70% of workers, making them wait for 20-100 years on H-1B status. This is not diversity. This is discrimination.
EB demand from ROW is about 30% of total and yet gets about 80% of all available EB visas each year. This is a textbook case of stupidity and discrimination. Thank you @David_J_Bier for this analysis.

To all fellow Indians stuck in #GCbacklog, I left US a few months back. It was a hard decision considering we spent a good no of years there, had social & professional lives with a kid & that starting afresh in 40s isnt so much fun. But after leaving this is what I gained 🧵

The number of times https://t.co/OCLvbTs8wD website just decides to end my session while I'm filling out obscure details from 5 years ago is like a test for immigrants. It should be used as an example during interviews to showcase patience as a skill.😞
