Here's a foreign worker at a tech company (Oracle) asking a simple question:
>"I won the H1B visa lottery, but I have 2 more years of my student work permit. Should I DELAY getting my real work visa to avoid paying $10,000 in taxes?"
The comments tell you everything:
>"Just don't file it and save on taxes."
>"Deciding to apply later... can activate H1B few years later while still holding on to the lottery spot. Sorry."
THE SCAM, IN THEIR OWN WORDS:
1. They win the visa in the lottery.
2. They then INTENTIONALLY DELAY getting the visa for years.
3. Why? To keep their special "no payroll tax" status.
4. They openly discuss how to dodge thousands in taxes that YOU are forced to pay.
They see your Social Security and Medicare taxes as an optional fee to be avoided. They see our immigration system as a game to be manipulated.
This isn't a secret conspiracy. They're bragging about it right out in the open. They call it "saving on taxes." You call it getting screwed.
