Blaze TV host Sarah Gonzalez highlights yet another instance of suspected H-1B visa fraud in Texas.
During her investigation, Sara checked out a daycare in Allen known as the Allen Infant Care Center, along with a nearby autism therapy clinic called the DFW ABA Center. Both facilities are operated by Golden Qi Holdings LLC.
Upon visiting, she found the same concerning signs as in her prior inquiries: the locations were empty with no signs of activity.
However, these two companies have sponsored at least 37 H-1B workers and filed over 50 work condition applications since their establishment, as reported by U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services.
“What’s intriguing is that when you look into the data and the Labor Condition Applications, it’s hard to see why a daycare would require a market research analyst or a supply chain analyst,” Sarah pointed out. “Yet, this company actually stated that they needed foreign workers for those roles.”
In an episode of “Sarah Gonzalez Unfiltered,” she sets out to expose this potential H-1B scam in Texas.
During her investigation, she unexpectedly met a whistleblower who provided her with insider details about a seemingly fraudulent company.
This source claimed that an individual named Yao runs a visa scheme, offering visas to foreigners for a price.
“He sponsors individuals on visas, and they end up working for him for nearly nothing,” shared the whistleblower, mentioning that these individuals often come from affluent families and can pay around $20,000 in visa fees.
“Someone covers their rent, car, and other expenses because their income here isn’t sufficient to meet living costs. So, they arrange these deals back in China. Once here, they either work for low pay or look for jobs with different sponsors,” the source explained, noting that many recipients are educated young women on student visas.
The whistleblower also claimed that Yao’s father held a prominent position in the Chinese government. “When I found out how much the PPP loan would be, hundreds of thousands of dollars… there were also benefits from the Texas Workforce Commission for childcare centers,” he added.
Despite these significant government assistance programs, the whistleblower asserted that Mr. Yao spent “nothing” on the daycare or autism center.
As she often does, Sarah confronted Yao directly.
In a tense exchange, she approached him while he was driving a sleek BMW sports car, questioning him about the Visa sponsorship and requesting access to public records.
The conversation went poorly, with Yao refusing to answer her queries and instead promising that his attorney would get in touch.
Continuing her research, Sarah stumbled upon further red flags.
“They benefited from over $100,000 in forgiven PPP loans during both rounds and filed for bankruptcy in 2022. Additionally, numerous employees are noted to be working in other locations, such as Los Angeles, California,” she noted. “What could someone in Los Angeles possibly contribute to a daycare? I’d really like to know.”
“Interestingly, one of the Labor Condition Applications submitted seemed fitting for kindergarten teachers, but why do we need to bring in foreign educators when we can’t find any locally?” she questioned.
Sarah is determined to relay all the information she gathers about Mr. Yao and his operations to her contacts at the Department of Immigration and Labor.
“I’m coming for you,” she warned Yao as he drove away.
