Honestly, the H1B Visa has lost a lot of its charm. When I talk to friends in India and China, many of them now prefer Canada, Germany, or Australia because those countries offer clearer residency pathways and job security. The U.S. is seen as unpredictable, with constant policy changes and risks. Tech layoffs make things worse. Imagine uprooting your life, moving to the U.S., and then being laid off within a year, with only 60 days to find a new job. That’s terrifying. For many professionals, the risk outweighs the reward now. So yes, I’d say the H1B Visa is still desired, but definitely less attractive than five years ago.
