Exactly, for a State Govt job that pays 80k, there are 150 submissions in a week was what was told to me by the HR. 

Some of these people had previously worked in Bay Area for 200k+ salaries but are out of a job now so they are ready to work for even 70k apparently.

Can someone here tell me what is i140 ? and is it any different from H1? This 100year wait means all people in green card line are subjected to h1b rules and changes ? Or some relief to i140 ?

chatGPT answer
 

Here’s a breakdown to help you understand the difference between I-140 and H-1B, and how they relate to the green card process and long wait times:


What is I-140?

The I-140 is an Immigrant Petition for Alien Worker filed by your employer to sponsor you for a green card (permanent residency). It’s part of the employment-based green card process.

  • Filed with USCIS by an employer (not the employee).

  • It's usually step 2 of 3 in the green card process:

    1. PERM Labor Certification

    2. I-140 Petition

    3. I-485 Adjustment of Status (only when a green card is available based on your priority date).


What is H-1B?

The H-1B is a temporary non-immigrant work visa, valid for:

  • 3 years initially, extendable to a maximum of 6 years (unless green card process is underway).

  • Allows you to live and work in the U.S. for a specific employer.


🔁 Key Differences Between I-140 and H-1B

Feature I-140 H-1B
Type Immigrant (green card) Non-immigrant (temporary work visa)
Filed by Employer Employer
Purpose Permanent residence Temporary work
Status Granted None directly – supports green card Temporary visa
Portability Some portability under AC21 after 180 days Limited – requires transfer with new employer

Why the 100-Year Wait?

This refers to the employment-based green card backlog, especially for Indian nationals in EB2 and EB3 categories.

  • Per-country caps (no country can get more than 7% of total green cards annually).

  • High demand from India and China creates decades-long delays.

  • Even if your I-140 is approved, you can’t file I-485 until your priority date becomes current.


⚠️ Are I-140 Approved People Still Subject to H-1B Rules?

Yes, until you get the green card, you're still in a non-immigrant status (like H-1B), even if your I-140 is approved.

So:

  • You must renew or transfer your H-1B.

  • You are still dependent on employer sponsorship.

  • You are subject to H-1B restrictions (like wage levels, job location changes, etc.).


🟢 Any Relief After I-140 Approval?

Yes, some, but not full freedom:

  1. H-1B Extensions Beyond 6 Years:

    • If your I-140 is approved, you can extend H-1B beyond 6 years in 1 or 3-year increments.

  2. Job Portability (AC21 rule):

    • If your I-485 is pending for 180+ days, you may change jobs in the same or similar field, without restarting the green card process.

  3. H-4 EAD for spouses:

    • Spouses of H-1B holders with an approved I-140 may be eligible for work authorization.


🧾 Summary:

  • I-140 is for green card sponsorship.

  • H-1B is a temporary work visa.

  • Even with I-140 approved, you're still on H-1B rules until you get the green card.

  • The 100-year backlog is due to country caps and high demand, mostly impacting Indian nationals.

  • Some relief exists post-I-140 (extensions, portability, H-4 EAD), but you’re not out of the H-1B system until you get the green card in hand.


Let me know if you want help calculating your priority date wait time or understanding EB2 vs. EB3 categories.
