‘If an H-1B holder is working remotely…’: Journalist who claimed to expose visa fraud in Texas responds to employees working from home

If an H-1B worker is working remotely, can they work from their home country? That question has sparked a debate after Texas journalist Sara Gonzales posted a viral YouTube video claiming she had exposed an H-1B visa scam in Texas.Gonzales said she visited addresses linked to a company employing H-1B workers and found no offices at the given locations. The video was noticed by MAGA bigwigs and ‘America First’ Republicans who agree on anti-H-1B rhetoric. However, social media users pushed back, saying there was no clear evidence of fraud.One social media user challenged her claim and wrote that the workers “could be working remotely like most of us.” Gonzales responded: “If an H-1B worker is working remotely, they can work remotely from their home country. Thank you for proving my point.”
