I expect a lot of H1B applicants creating shell corporations.


Well, they’ve passed the “culture” part of the citizenship test, then


H1B isn't citizenship.


I’m aware.


From what I understand you also need to be able to pay yourself a $60,000 salary minimum, from that LLC. If people can do that, then power to them and let them stay!

If you're worried about people shortcutting a line to get a visa by injecting money into the US economy, again by somehow getting 60K into the LLC to pay the salary of the recipient, this is also a win.

So what is the problem here exactly?
