The Future of the American lottery

Discussions about completing the US immigration programme through the Green Card lottery started two years ago. They are part of discussions within the framework of reforming migration laws.

Two Republican senators had then demanded an end to the lottery. But even recently, in his response to a terrorist act in New York, President Trump sought to end this programme. It criticises, among other things, conditions that must be met to win the lottery, such as the very minimum, that can be met by anyone. More than ending the programme is talked about replacing him with a score-based immigration system. And it's certain that if the lottery is over, there's no more chance for people without special qualifications for immigration into the United States.

From Germany, for example, 532 people won last year.
Visas for specialized employees

Besides the Green Card lottery, the changes required include H1-B visas, which are visas for specialised employees. Watchers in Washington think that changes depend on the future of trade agreements between America and China and India. Many high - tech experts from universities in India come to the U.S. Each year, 85 thousand H1-B visas are provided, a very important visa for the economy. The H1-B visa was introduced in 1990 to qualified employees.
