US approves massive increase in Visas
by The Editor at 06:30 06/10/00 (Letters from Freelancers)
Accoriding to the Times "US Congress has agreed to a huge boost in the number of skilled foreigners who will be allowed to work in America."

Win a trip to the USA next year and guess how many H1 visas will go to Brits

"The new Bill will allow 195,000 so-called H-1B visas to be issued for each of the next three years, up from 115,000 last year and 65,000 in 1998"

"Last year 6,665 H-1B visas were issued to people from Britain."

This will be another measure of IR 35 impact. Sweepstake on the number from the UK next year. Those closest get a free trip to Boston, courtesy of Shout99. Post your guess as a reply with the number in the title.

i.e
15,000

If you do not want to make a comment write it
15,000 (nt)

The article goes on.

Wealthy expatriate professionals are returning home to set up their own businesses or staff the newly established Indian offices of multinationals keen to establish a base in the nascent IT superpower

Proof of predictions made on Shout99, that the fast track visa scheme will result in the training of future competition for UK business.
