If you’re a young immigrant in the #US, you should know that #immigration is changing.
For years the F1-H1B-GreenCard pathway has worked.
What about now?

Increasing the #h1b numbers without significant reconsideration of #countrycaps would make #GCbacklog worse. It’s clear all the US wants are workers, not people.
Ah!! Forgot all about twitter’s substack ban. No wonder tweets have been going nowhere.
Oh well. Just go to sindhum.substackDOTCOM for the latest issue of This Immigrant Life

#Canada has a lot to learn from the US as it navigates post-COVID backlogs of its own. Immigrants to canada from the #US have seen the #backlog movie. It ain’t good.

If you are in the #US on a work visa and don’t have a Plan B, you’re basing your financial stability, peace of mind and career on luck.
Build optionality. Create an immigration plan B.

Biggest hack to ACE your US immigration journey?
Learn to stand up for yourself
Again. And again. And again.
In this 1.5 min video, I share how I advocated my need to:
✅ Get my H1B on time
✅ Apply for green card through EB2 + EB1
✅ Request processing of Adjustment of Status
For those of you looking to leave the #US for #Canada using #ExpressEntry Know that this is no longer a quick move. Plan ahead. Don’t wait for #immigration crisis to hit.
Canada is no longer a life jacket for #usimmigration

It’s curtains on #H1B 2024. As with every year, for many #immigrants this will be a rude awakening to the realities of #usimmigration. Young #Indian immigrants wanting to stay should start working towards #EB1 now itself open.substack.com/pub/sindhu…

This is just cruel. And yet the #H1B applications reach dizzying heights the same year. Up is down. In is out. Nothing makes sense anymore. #ImmigrationReformNow #USCIS #greencardbacklog #GreenCard #immigrants #AmericanDream
EB-2 India Final Action Date of 1/1/2011 is a complete disaster. travel.state.gov/content/tra…
I’ll say it. Expecting #internationalstudents to apply for their #f1visas as early as 1 year before their program start date is RIDICULOUS. Yes, for students who have been struggling to get a spot, this is much needed relief, but this should not be framed as good news.
For students still deciding on a destination for their studies abroad, take it from someone who studied, lived, worked and ultimately left the US, this is a red flag 🚩. It is indicative of just how broken #usimmigration is. #studyabroad #MS #immigrationreform
The #h1blottery results will known soon. For those wondering if there’s a different way. It is worth learning about #Eb1. Even if you do not qualify for it today, what if you could work towards it? open.substack.com/pub/sindhu…
