bumbisoft Posted July 8, 2020 Share Posted July 8, 2020 Is the JM in anyway discriminatory against international students from India/China because of the green card issues? Also, how tough is it to get an EB1 visa for a new professor? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
startz Posted July 8, 2020 Share Posted July 8, 2020 The academic job market doesn't have a problem with green cards. (Although right at the moment all sorts of immigration issues have become problematic.) Some government jobs require citizenship. Some smaller private firms aren't set up to handle immigration issues. There is some discrimination against Asian students because of perceived language ability issues.

bumbisoft Posted July 8, 2020 Author Share Posted July 8, 2020 What about the EB1? As an Indian, the person I'm asking for will not be able to get an EB2 because of the quota. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
startz Posted July 8, 2020 Share Posted July 8, 2020 Historically, EB1 at universities has been no problem. At the moment, things may be a little weird though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bumbisoft Posted July 8, 2020 Author Share Posted July 8, 2020 Expected trends in next 5-10 years? Is this anti legal/skilled immigration policy temporary? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bumbisoft Posted July 8, 2020 Author Share Posted July 8, 2020 Even if DJT wins, have his policies been actually anti skilled immigration pre-COVID? Considering what I'd expect to be strong lobbies and bipartisan support for skilled labour (mostly for tech etc.), is skilled labour actually going to be a long term issue? I'm not sure, hence I ask.
