예전에 어떤 분이 글 중에서 한번 언급하셨었는데, 인도계의
스태핑 회사들이 H-1B를 싹쓸이하기 위해 자주 쓰던 수법중의 하나가
아랫 기사에서 언급되었고, 사기및 위조 혐의로 기소되었네요.
이런 회사들만 걸러져도 헤마다 마음 졸이며 H-1B 추첨기다리시는
분들의 상황이 훵씬 나아지리라 봅니다.

원문은 여기를 참조하시고.

H-1B 사기내용 관련을 발췌한 부분입니다.

This investigation involves companies that sponsor primarily H-1B non-immigrants, or temporary workers in specialty occupations that require a particular expertise. The companies that are the subject of this investigation have asserted that the foreign workers have been brought to the U.S. to fill existing vacancies. However, the companies allegedly have not always had jobs available for these workers, thereby placing them in non-pay status after they arrive in the United States. In some cases, the foreign workers have allegedly been placed in jobs and locations not previously certified by the Department of Labor, displacing qualified American workers and violating prevailing wage laws.

The companies and foreign workers have allegedly submitted false statements and documents in support of their visa petitions. The false statements and documents were mailed or wired to state and federal agencies in support of the visa applications. The companies are suspected of visa fraud, mail fraud, wire fraud, money laundering and conspiracy.

“The foreign labor certification programs are designed to permit U.S. employers to hire foreign workers to fill jobs essential to American businesses,” said Daniel R. Petrole, deputy inspector general, U.S. Department of Labor. “Our agency remains resolute in its commitment with its law enforcement partners to investigate fraud committed against these Department of Labor programs.”

U.S. businesses use the H-1B program to employ foreign workers in specialty occupations that require theoretical or technical expertise in specialized fields, such as scientists, engineers, or computer programmers. As part of the H-1B program, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and the Department of Labor (DOL) require U.S. employers to meet specific labor conditions to ensure that American workers are not adversely impacted, while the DOL’s Wage and Hour Division safeguards the treatment and compensation of H-1B workers. Congress sets a numerical cap for the admission of skilled workers into the U.S. The current H-1B cap is set at 65,000 visas per fiscal year. H-1B aliens can work in the United States for three years, with an option for an additional three years (for a maximum of six years).
