'Why can't an American do this job instead of you?' question being asked to H-1B applicants
Many H-1B visa applicants are reportedly being asked at US visa interviews, "Why can't an American do this job instead of you?" It reflects renewed focus on protecting US jobs and echoes President Trump's earlier "Buy American, Hire American" approach, according to report by The American Bazaar. Such questions are increasingly surfacing in visa refusal cases, an immigration attorney said.
