Comment on These Rules
When an agency proposes a rule, anyone can send a public comment, and the agency has to consider them. These are open now. USCIS found fraud or noncompliance at more than 1 in 5 of the H-1B extension sites it visited from 2022 to 2025.
Make a Report
If you know of immigration fraud, visa abuse, or an employer passing over Americans for visa workers, report it to the agency that handles it. Every link below goes straight to the government. nomoreh1bs.com does not collect reports or store anything you send.
Not sure where to start? Use this guide:
| What you’ve seen | Where to report it |
|---|---|
| Someone in the U.S. illegally, or immigration crime | ICE |
| H-1B, student visa, marriage or other visa fraud | USCIS |
| An H-1B employer underpaying, benching, or breaking its LCA | Department of Labor |
| Being passed over or fired in favor of visa workers | Department of Justice |
| Retaliation for reporting any of the above | Whistleblower protections |
ICE: Immigration and Customs Enforcement
ICE investigates people in the country illegally and immigration-related crime, including employers who knowingly hire unauthorized workers. You can report online or by phone, and you don’t have to give your name.
Tip line: 866-DHS-2-ICE (866-347-2423), staffed 24 hours a day.
USCIS: visa fraud and H-1B abuse
U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services approves visas, and it runs its own fraud unit. Its secure tip portal takes reports on employment visa fraud (including H-1B), student visa fraud, marriage fraud, false claims to citizenship and more. You can upload documents as evidence and submit anonymously.
Common signs of H-1B fraud include fake or inflated job titles, workers placed at sites never disclosed on the petition, “benched” workers left unpaid between assignments, shell companies, and fraudulent degrees or work history. See Combating Fraud and Abuse in the H-1B Visa Program.
Department of Labor: H-1B wage and LCA violations
Before hiring an H-1B worker, an employer files a Labor Condition Application (LCA) promising to pay the required wage and not to hurt the pay or working conditions of U.S. workers. The Labor Department’s Wage and Hour Division investigates employers who break those promises. H-1B-dependent employers and willful violators also have to attest that they didn’t displace U.S. workers.

Phone: 1-866-487-9243. More on the rules: H-1B program (DOL).
Department of Justice: discrimination against U.S. workers
It is illegal for an employer to discriminate against U.S. citizens in hiring or firing because it prefers visa workers. The Justice Department’s Immigrant and Employee Rights Section (IER) enforces this. It’s the office behind the 2021 Facebook settlement over jobs steered to visa holders.

Worker hotline: 1-800-255-7688.
If you face retaliation
Federal law protects workers who report H-1B violations or cooperate with an investigation. An employer can’t fire, demote, threaten or blacklist you for it. Retaliation complaints go to the agency that handles the underlying law (for H-1B, the Wage and Hour Division above). If the case isn’t resolved, it goes to a hearing before a Department of Labor administrative law judge.
