- After his inauguration, many of President Trump’s announcements and executive orders have caused far and anxiety among applicants and holders of the H1B visas. Of particular concern is the ending of the citizenship by birthright be halted, though this particular provision has been stayed by the courts because it is unconstitutional.
Duriya Dhinojwala, who practices law with a special focus on immigration issues, answers some of these complex questions in this podcast interview with Sidharth Bhatia.
For one thing, she says the H1B programme still goes strong and the birthright citizenship condition has not been stayed-“so please talk to your physician before you rush into a decision.” She explains that not winning the H1B lottery is not the end of the world-there are many other ways to reapply. “It’s not end of the world” she says.
She also explains in detail the issue of Illegal migrants that the US wants to send back.
The bigger problem, she says, is that the Greencard backlog for Indians is long and is growing and the Indian government should discuss that with the Trump administration.

Indian in America - like India . If you go to Dallas/ New jersey / Bay area -- You feel you are in India in all aspects .. Same comparison of who is having green card , who is not -- How many million one has ?.-- Who is Citizens who is not - Who is owning Bungalow facing beach etc.. All Indian behavior can be seen..
India in all aspects? Is infra, air pollution, traffic, unemployment rate like India?
Very informative 👌
Very informative talk.
Very insightful. Thank you
Superpower Vishvaguru India runs on H1B visa 😂😂😂😂
this nonsense of Vishvaguru is for the poor while the rest run to the West
I really do not understand why Indian government should be bothered about NRIs who are having green card and citizens in USA ?. Only for remittance reason ?. Otherwise there is nothing India gets from these people who left India in search of money -- Hence asking for Indian officials negotiating on behalf of Green card people is simply selfish movement by Indians in USA ..
I'm a German Citizen and I totally agree that the Indian government should not bother about NRI. She is also incorrect about dual citizenship; only very few EU countries have that. Germany does allow ( except Israelis with German background can have). Once an Indian accepts another country's Citizenship he/she is India's problem. That is the attitude India should have.
I am not sure if you understand that most NRIs who are on visa or residency abroad, are actually Indian nationals I..e hold Indian passports and citizenship. They are entitled to the same fundamental rights as Indian citizens as those who reside in India.
@ Fine -- That is OK -- Why Indian government influence their settlement in USA and lobby for their Green card ?.
Very good podcast.
Great ☺️☺️👌👍
This lady lawyer is Proud citizen of America -- YET she wants duel citizenship why ?. If she loves her country America , let her enjoy there fully forget about India . SHe is selfish lady -- She wants both cake and eat it too .. This is grab mentality of many of Indian settled in America -- They buy land in BAngalore and wait for price to go up stratosphere .. Our unscruplous builders search for such NRIs who buy at astronimcal price raising real estate price artifically high -- Majority of Indian settled in America now shows their HINDU identity on their sleeve as they are in their late 50s and there is a guilty feeling of leaving India ( JANANI JANMABHOMISTA SWARGADAPI GARIYASI ) -- After Ravan was killed , Lakshan wanted to stay back in Swarna Lanka , then BHGWAN SRIRAM saye above sloka ..
How old are you? How educated are you? How much money do you make? Do you have to depend on your parents for money/property? What kind of reservation do you have? What kind of freebies do you enjoy?
@@tejaswinilakkaraju258 I am 37 years old -- BE from NIT -- I make 24 LPA - No depedence on parents I own a house -- No reservation i belong to general merit -- No freebies ..
Hey man Indians who moved to US actually help Indians who are now moving to US in times of uncertainty and disasters.
People who moved earlier moved legally with merit and want Indians moving now to keep that reputation intact.
It’s really only in USA the Indians got the perfect platform to prove their worth and showcase their talent unlike in other countries.
Feels like the US has been kind and generous to Indians and Indians need to be respectful towards USA.
Wherever an Indian goes he will be Indian by heart. Let it be 1st generation or 2nd generation or 3rd generation. Indians always try to contribute to the society they live in and that’s been in their DNA.
@@skysrivat Legally / illegally is not the question -- Why did you leave India after aquiring high quality IIT/IIM education in India ?. Did India government established IITs to develop talent for USA ?. This is what I mean.. Flash back - 1945 Japan was bombed -- by 1969 ( just 24 years ) , they are back with full force -- By 1981 they were in global business -- How ?. their enginners did not run behind USA money -- They develoepd their country ( Problems are plently in India -- We can list 50000 resons -- That is for another day ) .. Hence those who left India legally can not say they did right thing -- They went to USA in search of Money only -- nothing else -- Their Grandfather lived in India with big family - Suddenly this so called legal immigrants thought USA is better place to live? Nothing wrong legally -- But asking moral question .. Please note there are great people who worked in India made this country -- E SRIDHANRAN , Railway Chief Engineer who is 88 now did 3 major projects after his retirement -- Toughest KONKAN RAILWAY project ( i know full story ), Delhi Metro , Kochi metro -- Nandan Nilekani -- he is CTO officer of the whole country -- His brain child Addhar is really back bone of Indian DPI .. Dr. Swaminathan gave us food security , recently SRIDHAR VEMBU came back from USA and establsuehd 20000 crore IT engineering company ZOHO corproation in Southen Tamil NAdu a place called TENKASI -- They are great peple who could settle is USA legally easily -- But they chose to do something here in India .. I think you got it what I wanted to say
US has h1b visa system but do not want to give citizenship to h1b visa holder children.
I think she is fine, given that she has been there for 35 years. I have seen worse
Who is doing racism that person should be declared as illegal and anti national.
The delulu is strong in this woman.
delulu is strong in this man named abhishek
@DesiGirl363 delulu desigirl
How is birthright citizenship targeting to H1bs they can still work without issues?
If child born off H1 Parents can’t be US citizen then what country is the child citizen of?
How is Indias population concerns in US green card backlog.
will h1b visa be stopped one day time will say
Are they revoking h4 ead?
It may be easier to go to mars and return than getting a visa app at the American embassy in India
Now saffron card made important.
Green is assigned to Muslims
Golden card colour to Catholics
Country base CAP should be removed first. Merit ,Seniority , quality talent hamper.
2 cent desi attorney
This is Mr. Bhatia’s worst interview. For one, I see the use of the word “illegals” very problematic given the progressive credentials of Mr. Bhatia and The Wire. Also, this attorney is being a little dishonest when she says “it is what it is” wrt racism. She hasn’t mentioned how institutions that may safeguard citizens and non citizens against racist onslaught are already being dismantled.
18k? No Sir 1.5 million illegal Indians in usa. 6 lakhs Gujaratis n 5 lakh Sikhs n Haryana boys.
Sikhs n Muslims will get political asylum but what will Hindus do?
Where did you get 1.5 million from? Gujratis have business through which they get green cards. Only Sikhs had asylum visa based on some incident happened in the 80s. But Indian Government is getting it stopped now. Muslims from India don’t have asylum visa. Rest of Indians come here for job purposes and are legal non-immigrants.
Once America was a very beautiful country but now it is turning ugly. Amd You know it why.
....the best place for endian is endia not the USA ,they need to build the hendu rashtra and make endia great again(by the way when was endia ever great?)....
Actually never
Gosh, her accent.... She is living in US for 35 years, her accent is like she is first year F1 student and trying to imitate American accent. Just talk normal lady, don't try to imitate, you will be fine even if you have Hinglish accent.
