The H-1B visa policy has drawn criticism from an American man after his Indian friend was compelled to leave the country. The friend’s departure occurred because she couldn’t find a new job within the 60-day window allowed after her previous employment ended. Her friend took to social media to air his grievances, highlighting her lengthy stay in the U.S., her educational achievements, and the value she contributed. He lamented the loss of talent and the negative consequences for startups, landlords, and cities. He called for immediate and comprehensive changes to the H-1B visa program to ensure that the U.S. retains international talent.
