美国H1B salary threshold 6万增到13万

看到论坛这么多人积极踊跃申请美国我想问一下大家的意见

大家知道在Trump government下 H1B申请门槛从6万激增到13万么？这么多会计研究生毕业之后起薪也就是4-6万想知道下大家是怎么想的

我公司之前有一个同事在美国 Denver Crowe Horwath LLP 做Director of Accounting之后还要回到加拿大因为现在政策越来越不好所以I just want to put the new H1B salary threshold on everyone's radar....

Short Summary of the H1B Bill 130K – High-Skilled Integrity and Fairness Act of 2017

H1B Program Changes : For H1B Dependent Employer, increase the current wage exemption level from $60,000 USD to about $130,000 USD or higher, which is set based on 35 percentile points over the median of annual wage for “Computer and Mathematical Occupations (Group 15-0000)”. Basically set at 85 percentile points. The key thing to note is, it only applies to H1B Dependent Employers. Also, eliminate the masters degree exemption for H1B Dependent employers.
Transparency for H1B Holders : Employers should provide immigration paperwork to H1B visa holders within 3 years from the date the petition was filed. I believe, this is to avoid employers locking H1B holders and treating them unfairly as they hold H1B, Green Card paperwork.
Change Prevailing Wage System for H1B LCA : Increase the prevailing wage requirements by replacing Level 4 wage system to a 3-level wage formula.
Market Based H1B Visa Allocation : prioritize allocation of H1B Visas based on who pays more. First Priority to employers who pay 200% over Level 3 prevailing wage, then 150% of Level 3 prevailing wage. Next Priority to employers who pay 200% over Level 2 prevailing wage, then 150% of Level 2 prevailing wage, similarly for other levels. Also, no voluntary authorizations by employees to pay reduced wages, the employer has to pay full wages all the time.
H1B Visa for Small and Startup Employers : Reserve 20% of H1B cap for small and startups with 50 or less employees. Such employers cannot put their employees at third party site for more than 30 days.
Visa Provisions for Students, Other Visa holders : Provide dual intent for F1 students status, so that they are not denied visas based on potential immigrant option. Also, provide employment and travel authorization for such visa holders with approved employment based petitions waiting for their Green Card.

我怕是我对政策掌握不够所以问问大家都是怎么理解的

据我所知：
第一，这个只是提案，并未通过。
第二，你仔细看可以发现针对的是H1B Dependent Employer。并不是所有H1B sponsor。能被分类成H1B Dependent Employer的要求是很严苛的（https://www.dol.gov/whd/regs/compliance/FactSheet62/whdfs62C.pdf），具体你可以google一下。

这是针对那些外包公司吧，对于中国人来说某些程度上反而是好消息，因为之前被阿三抢的h1b太多了
