Curious to know if they are still renewing the H1B in 2026 ? Or they have stopped doing the renewals too?
I know they have stopped sponsoring work visas for new roles.

They’re pulling folks straight out of sales teams in India and dropping them into maintenance and engineering gigs on site?
Latest one: Girl with 7 years in BTC sales just landed an electrical engineer role in BMT. And the announcements are full of these examples.
I’m genuinely disgusted and disappointed. When did “fit the role” stop mattering for jobs that keep operations safe and running?

This is pure abuse of L1/L2 visa. Someone should report this

Company is retaining H1B and prioritizing visa holder over citizens. Use USCIS tip to report the abuse .

Here are some new sheet ideas for those workbooks that guide leaderships decisions. I know that our country and our citizens welfare will not be factored in.

1. Plot visa sponsorship against recalls
2. Plot cumulative layoffs against recalls
3. Plot them both against labor cost per dollar earned.
4. Plot visa sponsorship growth in groups, I bet it's exponential.

There have been reports of some H-1B employees at CVS, particularly those approaching visa renewal periods, being encouraged to relocate to Canada after the company decided not to continue visa sponsorship or pursue employment-based green card processing. In certain situations, these contractors reportedly continue working remotely for CVS from Canada shortly after relocating.

This raises important questions regarding cross-border employment arrangements, immigration compliance, and tax obligations in both the United States and Canada. Remote work from Canada for a U.S.-based employer may require appropriate authorization and adherence to Canadian immigration and labor regulations.

Concerns have also been raised about whether all necessary Canadian work authorization and compliance processes are being consistently reviewed or monitored for individuals in these arrangements. Given the potential legal and regulatory implications, this is an area that may warrant greater transparency and oversight.

Been hearing rumors that h1b sponsorship is dead in cvs now. Does this apply to all roles? Or IT excluded?

A lot of interest in offshoring and visa fraud. Would be great to get a YouTuber to do an expose on what Exxon is doing. They could visit some hotels near to campus in the morning and see the huge number of Indians in business trips to Houston and then also all the ones driving into campus who are expats to the US.

Today HR announces that CVS will no longer support H1b or any other visa type to hire foreigners.

American jobs for Americans!!!! YES!!!!!!

Some teams are firing. Some teams are hiring. Some teams are hiring from India sponsoring H1B visa.

I had my meeting this morning, lot of my useless team and my management stays! Gonna monitor new H1B applications by Nike at Beaverton, will be the whistle blower if they fire us and hire H1Bs

When will ford stop visa hiring. It looks like a IT call center. We have plenty of local talent.

Local American professionals are in surplus and jobless but we are paying more in visa fees instead of hiring people from here. Non-American managers prefer to hire non-American staff working here in the US, where Americans must be considered first. I cannot believe companies are unable to find people to do the job, there are folks here with even better skills.

I've been through a few layoff cycles and I don't remember ever once an employee on a H1B visa or any other work visa getting let go. H1B visa holders are considered temporary workers. Why are full time employees let go before temporary employees? Soon all of Nike will be visa workers. The American dream is for everyone except Americans.

I just don’t see why I should be supportive of a foreigner taking the place of an American candidate that is equally or more qualified, speaks the language, and won’t result in brain drain after a few years. These entitled early career applicants are students with no experience other than symbolic “internships” where they were told they are the center of the universe. We pay them a premium but they are worse than AI. At least AI can follow directions.

filter by 2025. quite a few high salary ones in spring. the way the job market is, no way these can't be filled by a US citizen.

FYSA: Mr. Schulman, H-1B visa price hike deemed lawful by federal judge.

A federal judge has rejected a challenge to the White House's proposed $100,000 application fee for H-1B visas. The court ruled the price increase is lawful, citing the president's "broad statutory authority." Separately, the Trump administration announced it will end the lottery-based work visa system in favor of a new weighted selection process. Officials claim the changes will prioritize higher-paid, higher-skilled applicants. The updates follow months of shifting guidance on fees and restrictions tied to the visa program, which is widely used by technology companies to hire foreign talent.

A.) The U.S. has started conducting online presence reviews of all H-1B and H-4 visa applicants in a bid to curb what it refers to as the “abuse” of the program.

B.) The wage protection law proposed by the Department of Labor last week could dissuade companies from sponsoring H-1B visas.

C.) Any changes to the H-1B rules will likely disproportionately hurt Indians, as they make up more than 70% of the recipients in recent years.

President Trump’s Secretary of Labor, Lori Chavez-DeRemer, had a one-on-one interview this week with The Daily Signal, a media outlet founded by The Heritage Foundation, the influential conservative think tank.

Chavez-DeRemer said her agency is currently working on almost 200 investigations, including the efforts of “Project Firewall,” an initiative that specifically monitors companies that are scamming and abusing the H-1B vias program.

Chavez-DeRemer asserts that before U.S. companies apply for the H-1B visa program, “you want to advertise to the American worker first, you want to make sure you can’t find an American worker first, and then apply for the H-1B program.”

She added, “The goal is to make sure that we have a trained workforce. So if these companies are going to use the program, we want to make sure that they’re also training American workers, so we can offer it to them first.”

U.S. Tech Workers, a nonprofit group formed by the Institute for Sound Public Policy to pressure the federal government for visa program reform and ensure companies hire U.S. tech workers first before recruiting abroad, responded to the Secretary’s comments.

U.S. Tech Workers characterizes as literal Chavez-DeRemer’s description of her ideal situation — companies advertising to American workers first — and wrote to clarify the limits of the actual legal responsibilities of H-1B employers: “Alarming to see @SecretaryLCD get basic H-1B facts wrong. She claims employers must first advertise jobs to Americans first-which is FALSE. There's no labor market test required, just self-attestation. How can you reform a program to protect Americans if you don't understand it?”

U.S. Tech Workers added: “It also appears that Project Firewall is merely targeting low-hanging IT bodyshops that once published ‘hiring H-1B only’ on job ads, rather than going after the Big Tech behemoths engaged in mass layoffs while simultaneously sponsoring visas. No structural rule changes are being proposed, such as closing the outsourcing loophole or raising the prevailing wage requirements. Disappointing @USDOL.”

The U.S. Tech Workers is not without influence or connections. The founder of the group, Kevin Lynn, met with President Trump at the White House in August 2020, when the President signed an executive order to, according to Trump, “finalize H1-B regulations so that no American worker is replaced ever again. H1-Bs, which are a scam should be used for top, highly paid talent to create American jobs, not as inexpensive labor program to destroy American jobs.”

This is very odd in oregon. What is happening?

Justice is coming back to US workers. But the dam age maybe too bad to recover from unless they start reversing statuses.

As you might have guessed IBM isn't one of the employers who is stopping H1B visas; Alvind clandestinely supports DEI and H1B visas as it serves him and the Pipmunks to IBM's advantage.

I saw someone's title is GRVM Application development, does that mean they are contractors ? or hired by the bank with H1B visa ?

There have been hardly any senior or lead positions open in the data space. Even if something is posted, looks like they are mostly labor filing related openings and you get a response back that you do not meet the expectations. No calls no nothing but just a rejection. This all seems to be internal referrals and 3P conversions or referrals taking up the roles or is it true that there is no need for data related roles at USAA. What's the deal?

Nobody in the US can write computer programs anymore, they asked in LinkedIn to tick some compliance boxes. Nobody found.

BlackRock has deliberately violated the intended purpose of the H1B visa by sponsoring many junior positions such as analysts and associates. These roles are typically suitable for qualified American young professionals, yet BlackRock prefers to hire foreign workers on H1B visas. The reason for this appears to be discriminatory practices, as managers—often of Chinese or Indian origin—favor hiring foreign candidates over qualified Americans. Additionally, their interview process is unfair to American applicants. H1B visas should not be permitted for junior-level roles at BlackRock, as this practice harms job opportunities for young Americans. The government must take action against a system that allows companies like BlackRock to exploit H1B visas, resulting in American workers losing jobs unfairly.

Contact the USCIS and report Blackrock visa abuse today!

so, why is there so much H1B at Dell, or even in other countries, when there are a ton of US based workers that have been laid off. I thought the purpose of H1B is to use folks from other countries when there aren't enough qualified US people to do the same job. I think in this current economy, we have moved beyond that. We have plenty of qualified US workers to do the jobs being done by H1B workers here in the US. I feel H1B is being abused and not used for its intended purpose. Companies are using it for cheap labor. I'm willing to be that there are plenty of laid off US workers that would be do the same job for the price they're paying the H1B people. Seems like we need to make a shift in this now changing landscape.

Beginning in March our contracting firms will begin losing their employees as H1b renewals fail, or Nike is forced to eat +25% salary increases.

Executives will naively think they can continue using the same person by sending the role overseas too, but our offshored teams have been underperforming (despite the rosy metrics they share to leadership). Only underdone by teams slapped together without care for colliding working hours and bedtimes.

Tighten your seatbelts. 2027 will be dumpster fire after dumpster fire.

Is it true there are no h1b renewals/extensions being done? That’s another way to reduce
