South Korea Issues Update on Georgia Hyundai Plant ICE Raid

Work visas. You probably know next to nothing about visas.

Lets assume they had the wrong visas. Wouldn't it have been better, instead of rousting all 300 or so, to have them get to cure their incorrect visas?

 

[Marener]

Link? The link the OP says otherwise

Some of the detainees had entered the country unlawfully, while others arrived on temporary visas or through a waiver program that does not allow employment, according to Steven Schrank, the lead Georgia agent of Homeland Security Investigations.

THose are not Hb1 visas.

Do you have any idea the process to get an H1-B visa? Obviously not. You can’t even identify it correctly.

There is an annual limit of 65,000 and a lottery system. There’s no such thing as a slam dunk.

 

[WorldWatcher]

Be specific.

They had B-1 visas. What were they supposed to have?

H-1 Visas.

B-1 Visas do not allow for employment, they are for training, conferences, meetings, etc.

WW

So look the other way?

So you have no link that that they had the proper visas, you are just making shit up. Seems that's your jam these days.

I never said they had proper visas.

Explain how it could be considered a “slam dunk” to get an H1-B visa when they pick people in a lottery for the limited number of slots open.

 

[Zincwarrior]

No, the opposite. Have them correct it. Its just paper work.

Dude, you the one that claimed "There are no Americans who know how to build this plant." That makes it a slam dunk.

How does that get them around the visa lottery?

 

[Rawley]

No, the opposite. Have them correct it. Its just paper work.

It's not just paper work, it's proving that "There are no Americans who know how to build this plant."

 

[Rawley]

How does that get them around the visa lottery?

It doesn't. They have to apply just like everyone else.

 

[Marener]

It doesn't. They have to apply just like everyone else.

So it’s not a slam dunk. A slam dunk is a sure thing. The lottery has something like a 25% chance at getting one of a limited number of visas.

Thats fair.

the lottery only kick in after the cap of 85,000 has been reached They've know about this construction project for years. No excuse.

 

[Rawley]

Thats fair.

Yup. The Koreans ignored the process and just brought these people in or brought them in under false pretenses.

 

[Marener]

The lottery kicks in once they get more applications than spots. (20,000 of those visas are saved for people in US colleges).

The cap is the cap and won’t change unless Congress does something.

There’s no slam dunk. Glad we could educate you today.

I accept your surrender

Is that what you tell yourself? Troll.

 

[Delldude]

We built a plant in China. We had to go set it up and show the Chinese how to run it.

It's not a difficult concept.

They also have requirements for working in their country very similar to ours.

It's not a difficult concept.

 

[Delldude]

It’s definitely the problem. The company needs workers from South Korea to get the plant started up.

Why didn't they comply with US immigration law/policies?

Would have been no problem if that was done.

And when the law makes it incredibly difficult if not impossible to build the factory?

They could have been in compliance and there would be no issue.

You can't handle the truth

I am way too old to be a kid.

You're saying you're just an old goat then?
