Feds Consider H-1B Changes After Uncovering Fraud
CWmike writes "A Citizenship and Immigration Services spokesman said today that the agency is weighing a series of reforms to the H-1B application process, including the use of 'independent open-source data' to obtain information about visa seekers or the companies that file the petitions on their behalf. The move follows a report by the agency that found widespread problems and evidence of fraud in the nation's H-1B program, including forged documents, fake degrees and shell companies being used in H-1B applications. It also comes after the controversy caused by changes to the H-1B rules earlier this year."
H1-B fraud? Shell companies? Fake degrees? You mean it really does come down to cheap labor?
I'm shocked. SHOCKED!
Well, not that shocked.

....for the career my collage degree is in....
Look, I can accept a degree in art, but one which covers only collage seems to be rather limited. Does it include the use of different adhesives to stick the pictures to your chosen background? Do you study the pros and cons of using dried leaves as opposed to, say, petals or seed pods?
OK, I'm sorry, but it just made me chuckle to read what you had written.

When citizenship is no longer burdened by labor consultants that abuse this, then immigration can be considered. Otherwise:
Stay Home.
Naaah. I graduated out of the H-1B program, got a green card, applied for citizenship and married an American. I intend to take over your population with hybrid half UK/US citizens. My invincible army is already TWO strong. We'll own all your jobs, and fill your TV channels with cricket and endless re-runs of "Are You Being Served".
