off topic but it would be nice if someone has a list of all Tech/non tech LDPs that sponsor so that candidates know what their options are now. startups i doubt will be sponsoring if these new rules don't get struck down by courts. so it would be nice to know outside the usual IB/MBB/B4 track

Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick, in a call later with reporters, said the gold card will replace the current EB-1 and EB-2 visa programs for people who are of “exceptional value” to the United States. He said the administration expects to initially make 80,000 gold cards available but will continue to evaluate the model and could eventually phase out other visas.

Nope. Read any news article. It clearly states per year

Based on the Executive Order dated September 2025:

- The $100,000 fee is a one-time payment required for H-1B petitions, not annual.
- No specific minimum salary increase to $150,000; it directs rulemaking to revise prevailing wages and prioritize high-skilled/high-paid applicants.
- Applies to new entries after Sept 21, 2025; expires in 12 months unless extended.
- Not retroactive to existing visas.
this is grok reading the executive order so confusing
