If you sit for few years yeah. But most qualified immigrants come over, get a work permit and get something going.

And where there is a will there is a way. There are bring mommies back to work programs. And you can always go back to school and renew certifications. Or do something else with your life. Te excuse of I can’t find a job because I’m from Pakistan … Well yeah anyone who sits at home for 3-5 years with kids will find it hard to get back in the job market.

I agree that most people from Pakistan will get a job. I know many people who have got degrees from ok (though recognized universities) back home and are doing very well here. I have freinds who went to Sindh University for their MBA and not even IBA, LUMS etc and are doing well here. Even people from Abbotabad Medical College, Khyber Medical college are working as doctors. That’s not the issue. Issue is you get married to a guy who has an H1 visa, and you get an H4 visa. Unless you have that specific category you can’t get an H1 yourself and not everyone is super duper qualified or gets married at 22. Then by the time to get to the place in your green card where you can get work authorization you have been outside the job market for a while. Regarding the fact that why marry when you have a work visa, well most of my husband’s friends were around 30 when they got married, and knew that their companies were going to sponsor their green cards anyway. A lot of their wives didn’t want to work anyways and the guys were ok about that, work if you want to or stay at home if you so wish.
