How will the H-1B Visa crackdown effect Errickson Immigration Group?
The Trump administration’s sweeping H-1B visa crackdown—characterized by massive proposed fee hikes and sudden permanent residency suspensions—creates a complex financial dynamic for Erickson Immigration Group (EIG). While it severely risks cutting their primary high-volume revenue streams, it simultaneously drives a surge in high-margin advisory and compliance billings as corporate clients navigate the chaos.
The firm’s bottom line is being reshaped across several key operational areas:
1. Drop in High-Volume Sponsoring Revenue
2. Elimination of Green Card (PERM) Billing
3. The “Chaos Premium” (Surge in Advisory Fees)
4. Litigation and Appellate Billables
Ultimately, while EIG faces a structural loss in predictable, high-volume transactional revenue, the sheer complexity of the administration’s crackdown has temporarily transformed immigration law into an indispensable crisis-management service, offsetting volume losses with premium advisory billings.
Bottom line: She may be out of a job 🥴

ANOTHER PROBLEM FOR AMERICA IS THERE IS A GLOBAL DEMAND FOR THESES HIGHLY SKILLED PROFESSIONAL AND OTHER NATIONS ARE ALREADY OPENING THEIR DOORS TO WELCOME THESE HIGHLY EDUCATED TALENTS BADLY NEEDED FOR THIER AI INDUSTRY..
ANOTHER PROBLEM FOR THE U.S IS IF AMERICAN MULTI NATIONAL CORPORATIONS CAN NOT FIND ENOUGH DOMESTIC TALENTS FOR THE MASSIVE DEMAND FOR SCIENCE TECHNOLOGY ENGINEERING AND MATH PROFESSIONALS, THEY ARE GOING TO BE FORCED TO RELOCATE TO OTHER NATIONS WHERE THE TALENT IS. GLOBAL BUSINESS DOES NOT RUN ON AMERICAN EXCEPTIONALISM NORE RACISM AND HATE. THEY HAVE TO SURVIVE ECONOMICALLY AND COMPETE GLOBALLY.

THIS IS NOT ABOUT IMMIGRANTS TAKING AMERICAN JOBS, THIS ALL ABOUT WHITE FEAR OF DEMOGRAPHICS CHANGES AND WHITE PEOPLE BECOMING A MINORITY.. THEY ARE SO AFRAID OF LOSING POWER PRIVILEGES AND A SENSE OF SUPERIORITY THEY ARE MORE THAN WILLING TO DESTROY OUR ECONOMY TAKE US BACK TO THE STONE AGE IF THEY CAN.. RACISM IS THE ROOT CAUSE OF THIS NEW WAVE OF ANTI IMMIGRANT XENOPHOBIA DESPITE THE FACT THAT WE HAVE A DECLINING POPULATION DUE TO LOW BIRTH RATE AND AN AGEING POPULATION.. ALL OF THIS MADNESS STARTED WITH THE ELECTION OF PRESIDENT OBAMA A BLACK MAN , THE ELECTION OF TRUMP X2. THESE RACISTS HAVE NO PROBLEM DESTROYING EVERYTHING EVEN THERE OWN ECONOMIC HELL TO MAINTAIN THEIR DOMINANCE AND WHITE SENSE OF SUPERIORITY. YOU ARE GOING TO END UP WITH YOUR WHITE MAJORITY BUT AMERICA WILL BE A THIRD WORLD NATION IF THIS INSANITY CONTINUES.

Americans were laid off by Microsoft while an equal amount of foreign temporary workers were retained. That’s not how this program is supposed to work.
Foreign students pack the talent pipeline, taking opportunities from US students, in order for these foreign students to get a US job.

I think its the AI that is behind all this, corporate america wants to cut jobs but afraid of doing so in a direct way, so the president is helping them, and helping himself to paint it as he is tough on immigration. Average person on the street has no understanding of how the capitalism works, poor fellows. This rhetoric will keep increasing but with no impactful policy changes, that protects american workers in the long run.

H1B workers are not the backbone of tech and provide no value. There is a reason that India and its 1.6 billion Indians produce ZERO technology. You tell me what product, either hardware or software do you use that comes from India? All of the tech come from American companies, all tech is invented and created by American engineers. The knowledge and talent and skills are in America, not 3rd world India that produces no tech!

So wait a second Anver (from Pakistan origin) I was born there so I can tell where the person is from. She will have the bias to say this is a bad idea but what i am looking at is the quality of how it used to be, Mind you I moved here in 2005 and looking at Tech stuff taken over by south Asian companies, mostly Indian and Bangladeshi companies has gone to toilet. The big companies are doing some bad but then you have these fake IT companies for IT consulting who do the same scam as well. Double check all the H1B visas and new visas should be triple screened! that’s the best way not lollygagging. Also with this they are cutting the wages down for people here in America and worse making those H1B visa guys work overtime as they are contracted as salaried so is it right?? Also who defines VALUE ADD???

Excuse me ms Hiba, but how can you make an astoundingly stupid comment about a tech talent pipeline needing to be developed and it not happening overnight as if we aren’t all well aware that tens of thousands of tech workers have been laid off across various branches of tech in the last few years? Microsoft alone since 2020 has laid off between 35k and 50k employees. Social media is littered with stories of software engineers with decades of experience being ,aid off from various companies. You people must really think we are just fucking stupid
