A very good friend of mine is from India. He HATEs the H-1B program. He came here on an education visa and applied for a green card and waited two year to get it.
He was very lucky then. Typically a green card for a guy like him can take seven to nine years.
That's a whole nother issue. Our immigration laws actually torture people who try and come the RIGHT way by putting them through year after year of Bureaucrat Hell.

He was. He studied a specific engineering discipline that allowed him in under the specialized technical program. He lucked out when a fellow student was hired by a company for his degree specialty with a cooperative venture in India. After working several years in India on the program the US government wanted it moved to the US.
Good for him since he had been waiting to come here after having a great experience in college here.

Yes, they do. It also can become cost prohibitive. A minimum seems to be at least $2,500, which is an annual salary in many countries.
