- hgoel 4mo agoIsn't this about applying for a green card directly from a non-immigrant visa, e.g. student? H1-B is an immigrant visa.
- bradreaves2 4mo agoH1-B is defined as “non-immigrant.” https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/H-1B_visa https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/H-1B_visa
- sokoloff 4mo ago> H1-B is an immigrant visa. I don't believe that's correct. H1-B is formally a temporary, nonimmigrant work visa/status which permits "dual-intent" (meaning a holder can be openly seeking permanent residence when applying for [or when on] such a visa without that dual intent being immigration fraud).
- hgoel 4mo agoAh you're right, I mixed up immigrant and dual intent.
- outside1234 4mo agoIt is intended to disrupt immigration full stop and especially brown immigration.

- y-curious 4mo agoI notice India being omitted from the list of affected countries though. That’s the major contributor to “brown immigration”
