Trump's Surprising Immigration Plan: Green Card for College Graduates

[@FiveSevenAkimbo]

That is actually a program that makes a ton of sense! I'm interested to see whether he will actually implement this in the future now that he has won the election.

[@malluTechUSA]

Bernie used to support American tech workers but since then he left us and voted against us with the corporate lobby, American tech workers are replaced by low cost h1b visa employees in tech and other visa employees for other jobs. Ten thousands of American tech workers are unemployed and We American workers union voted Trump overwhelmingly

[@tamschannel7357]

He talked about it once and never repeated it 😢

[@samnwo1007]

He's repeated it multiple times.

President Trump's immigration policy, focused on supporting international graduate students, is a step toward attracting talented individuals who can contribute significantly to the U.S. economy and society. By prioritizing skilled scholars over illegal immigrants, this policy will foster a more progressive environment, potentially creating one of the most advanced and innovative ecosystems since World War II. Countries should look to this initiative as an example of how investing in talent and education can lead to long-term economic growth and stability, much like how scientists and scholars from around the world have contributed to the U.S.'s leadership in research and development.

[@nbfriz10]

This is the "common sense" and best way to go about immigration. Australia, Canada and many other countries have better immigration pathways for students. Why not the US?

[@Travelwithtabby]

I hope that’s the case.

[@mccg4337]

I have some Ideas to start business aswell... but due to the inefficiency of the system I am stuck in H1b and cannot work on my ideas.

[@EvelineLockwood]

Have hope, the trump administration be the one who will help people like you.. Just make sure you keep your H1B visa up to date.

[@davidjonathandiazrivera4808]

But Trump said anybody, not only Engineers, scientists, astronauts, no, he said anybody from a 4 year college, 2 year, junior colleges, any college, anybody.

[@gradbm21]

Thank you for the informative analysis.

[@valerio.1977]

At the moment, 15/16 months to get perm Certified (EB-2). Ridiculus. ps. Do you think that even graduates with Master's degrees abroad will be able to obtain a green card?

[@Linda19816]

It does make sense because he wants to stop OPT and other program for international students.

[@S.A.R.T]

cuz he will implement green card policy. You wont be needing OPT when there is a GC opportunity

[@TennisOnAction]

Trump strongly supports legal immigration, which he often mentioned in his speech for his supporters to grant those who came here legally.I think even though they're out of status as long as they graduated from a U.S. college degree, the Trump administration offers them a pathway to permanent residency automatically.

[@mccg4337]

when trump was President, the H1b denial rate was all time high. what he says and what he does are very different... he is a known liar.. he will lie and sweet talk to show himself as a friendly person which affects his vote count..

[@jorgecabrera9534]

I agree with that if you come here to be lazy and not paying taxes then or going to college trump will deport we want people who wants to work and who want to go to College

[@ogluis2060]

Of what trump said would it include illegal inmigrants to get a green card too after graduating from college because that will be not good

[@miamiguel8750]

The issue with this is so many in the party are against it.

[@ahmedzouaoui8177]

Trump owns the republican party now. You fall in line or you are gone, if trump does not endorse you, you will lose the elections. Now mitch mcconnell is not the senate leader anymore. It is the beginning of a new era.

[@ManuMitra]

And that is for a reason.

[@miamiguel8750]

​@@ManuMitrawhat possible good reason? I can't think of why anyone even hardcore Republicans would be against it, it is actually a good idea in many ways.

[@feralonso]

There are facts not being told here. The National Interest Waiver "WAS" a useful tool for high skilled professionals. But not anymore. Although you skip the PWD and Labor Certifications wait forced in PERMs, as of Visa Bulletin December 2024, the waiting time for your action date once your NIW is approved is almost 2 years!! That's not smooth. That's a nightmare. That's completely unfair for a highly skilled professional with National Interest. It means that the professional must still wait two years to apply for a green card, with an adjustment of status, meaning the applicant cannot travel outside the US and live in a intermediate status being restricted to loans, credit and bank accounts. The applicant is still a foreigner for Banks, Employers and Government Agencies. National Interest Waiver WAS a useful tool before 2022, but unfortunately actual federal administration completely broke it.

[@augustoluimbo2627]

NIW is only for people with 10 years of experience in the exceptional ability field. That means any foreign that just graduated do not qualify.

[@kellychristofero2134]

Of course!who could afford it?The education here it's extremely expensive more than doble for those is out of status :(

[@cesarrenteria541]

Aka DACA...wtf dude

[@Kp-Law]

He talked it twice and never again. So it wont be automatic.😢

[@dvgny1]

You explain well, but national interest waves(NIW) is not as easy as their sounds. It's actually harder than an H1B visa. Correct me if I am wrong.

[@Bert-xw5wr]

Yes. As of now, NIW requires that you currently have an H1B, plus labor certification, plus around 10 years of work experience.

[@DrShah-k6d]

This is just great!

[@mariataranova4888]

What about H1B and EB3 and OPT after school?

[@intelliGENeration]

Is the "country quota" still expected to apply?

[@EvelineLockwood]

This was the original process a long time ago.

[@lorenarojas7704]

4 months ago ???

[@SuperJaasmin]

Being an Indian immigrant on h1 and now having GC , I will like to put Indian thot process after this news… they all thinking as every graduate can get it all h1 will try to rejoin college or ask spouses to join in college pass collge to get GC and they didn’t understand if it’s merit of top universities or any other eligible categories

[@helberdanilo2266]

If he implements this, do you think it would be retroactive?

[@jacobvargese6201]

[@Reddy_ard]

Hello Sir, Could you please help me with these questions? I have an approved NIW sponsored by my employer. My I-140 has an NIW and petitioner as my employer. If I change my employer do I need to apply for my I-140 with my new employer? Can I still use the NIW from my previous employer though I change my employer? If the NIW changes were to come and if I’m not with my current employer, will my I-140 be eligible? Thanks in advance!! Please help

[@tomriddle8181]

Hopefully he reintroduces this proposal given the enormous mandate . I been in the US for 10 years with a masters yet GC is 50 -100 years away !!!

[@Flipflopz__]

That's very exaggerated. Green card wait times r usually 15-20 years even less

[@desigrizzly]

@@Flipflopz__for Indian nationals its +100yrs. Thats brings me to the second point that this policy to segregate by country is definition of racism. Between 1920-80 they let tons of italians in, but now they are capping based on country so that they ll let in only white nationals mostly Europeans.

[@03taco87]

What about first responder immigrants?

[@mariamasey2292]

In my opinion this practice is discriminative. Mostly high skilled people don;t immigrate unless for severe situation in their home country or medical safety.

[@mariamasey2292]

every individual has a talent, this is a natural God gift. Speaking English doesn't mean being educated in my opinion. People should be rated on their talents and skills. People should also be rated on their characters and behaviors in any sociaty not only here. This immigration process is very emotional and stressful, something you feel like you useless even thought you have qualifications and good character

[@Leapfriez1]

U said it right. Etiquette matters. Hospitality. Lack of this is going to bring disaster

[@Leapfriez1]

Not just etiquette its impressive to follow laws and bring respectful not indulge in war or crime minds. That's the 80% doing fraud getting job offer in usa.

[@peanutbutter141]

he calls illegal immigrants criminal because they broke the law to get in.

[@freeatlast3752]

Federal offence but victimless crime! If you are an illegal you come here only to work and support the best for your family and yourself , who cares if they call u criminal or illegal or whatever, no one knows your sacrifice for a greater good

[@Flipflopz__]

Stop being so braindead

[@peanutbutter141]

@@freeatlast3752 the only way to have a secure country is to know who goes in and out. If we have open borders and let people in without any due process, bad actors can easily infiltrate the country and we are already seeing this with the cartels, gangs, and human trafickers. A crime is a crime nonetheless, the victims are the people who immigrated to the country through lawful means. People should not be awarded for breaking the most universal laws.

[@freeatlast3752]

@peanutbutter You are right but I was trying to tell how they see it ! You see a criminal because the law says it and I see someone who's sacrificing themselves to feed the rest of family ! Some people come heros out of their war but some people come survivers out of their war ! Definitely they are not criminals just as those coming legally are not engels !
