Why Six-Figure US Techies Are Leaving Everything Behind and Returning to India

Highly skilled Indian software engineers earning nearly $100,000 in the United States are increasingly being forced to pack their bags and return to India empty-handed. According to a recent Times of India report, many tech professionals on H-1B visas—facing visa denials, rejected I-140 petitions, and massive layoffs—are finding it impossible to sustain their lives in the US. Unable to sell their mortgaged houses in towns like Celina, Frisco, Melissa, and McKinney due to falling property values and high EMI burdens, many are simply walking away from their homes and cars. In this video, we explore real-life cases, including an engineer who spent 6.5 years in Dallas before an I-140 rejection forced him back to Hyderabad, and the growing housing and legal dilemma facing Indian immigrants across Texas, California, and Washington, D.C. #IndianTechies #H1BVisa #USImmigration #GreenCard #TimesGlobalIndian #IndianDiaspora
