This H1B program is gamed so hard its a joke at this point.

I personally witnessed someone that submit multiple applications that this person won the H1B lottery. This person even had fake office, fake business address, etc for the fake entities.

I already reported it, but no action has been taken. This person is now happily employed in the US using H1B.

Unethical life pro tips but work: for those of you trying to get H1B, just submit multiple applications to multiple "companies". There are services like this out there, just need to find out where.

Good luck. This nation is for plunder.


Didn’t the rule change last year where all applications by same person is considered as one?


Yup but they actually can't check.


Erm they can. They are looking at passport numbers now.


Dude that's just not true. You need to submit almost every single detail about yourself before the lottery, including information on your passport. In fact this has dramatically decreased the duplicate entries to H1B lottery.


You are free to believe what you want. I myself witnessed it. Fake address, fake office. Apply to "4" "companies".

You have no idea what good lawyer can do :)

It works.


Anti-immigration rhetoric always descends into fiction.


According to https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=42451726, this is much less of a thing than before.


is being employed for a salary considered plunder now?

I never claimed the IT labor shortage, merely replying to the specific quote "this nation is for plunder" - do you retract that?
