An H1B applicant was left in despair with a broken system after she was allegedly drugged, assaulted, and robbed. However, she is more concerned about her passport being stolen right before the H1B lottery than she is about formally complaining because she believes the police won't take any action. The courageous victim posted about her ordeal on social media.
She asked for advice and her alternatives for this year's H-1B lottery instead of dwelling on the terrifying details. According to reports, the unfortunate event happened in colombia on march 7, the day the H1B lottery opened. She avoided wasting any time in a court struggle by not filing any complaints since she was tired of the police being indifferent and careless.
But the immigration system in the united states is as harsh. Now that her passport has been taken, she is unsure of her choices as the march 24 H1B deadline draws near. She will only receive a scanned copy of the original passport if an emergency passport arrives too late. Internet users advised her to apply using her previous passport information and, if chosen, to submit any revisions.
Others advised her to put her recovery first. But that's the brutal truth: even trauma becomes less important when your future depends on a visa lottery. The woman is always concerned about obtaining her H1B visa, even after her most horrific event, in order to have a chance at a better life in the United States. This illustrates the toll that the harsh system has on people and goes beyond a personal tragedy.
