    The U.S. limits work visas for low-skill jobs outside of agriculture, with a binding quota that firms access via a randomized lottery. We evaluate the marginal impact of the quota on firms entering the 2021 H-2B visa lottery using a novel survey and pre-analysis plan. Firms exogenously authorized to employ more immigrants significantly increase production (elasticity +0.16) with no decrease or an increase in U.S. employment (elasticity +0.10, statistically imprecise) across several pre-registered subsamples. The results imply very low substitutability of native for foreign labor in the policy-relevant occupations. Forensic analysis suggests similarly low substitutability of black-market labor.

    Immigration policy can have important net fiscal effects that vary by immigrants' skill level. But mainstream methods to estimate these effects are problematic. Methods based on cashflow accounting offer precision at the cost of bias; methods based on general equilibrium modeling address bias with limited precision and transparency. A simple adjustment greatly reduces bias in the most influential and precise estimates: conservatively accounting for capital taxes paid by the employers of immigrant labor. The adjustment is required by firms' profit-maximizing behavior, unconnected to general equilibrium effects. Adjusted estimates of the positive net fiscal impact of average recent U.S. immigrants rise by a factor of 3.2, with a much shallower education gradient. They are positive even for an average recent immigrant with less than high school education, whose presence causes a present-value subsidy of at least $128,000 to all other taxpayers collectively.

    Policies aimed at favoring the attraction of FDI have been gaining strength on the agenda of national governments, largely supported by the so-called Investment Promotion Agencies (APIs). The purpose of this Discussion paper is to analyze the list of instruments adopted by such agencies. The methodology used in this research is based on bibliographic research, documentary research and analysis of secondary data. Based on the present study, it is possible to state that the range of mechanisms adopted by the APIs are not restricted to services that occur during the stages of definition and establishment of FDI projects, such as promoting visits to the place where the investment will take place and the promotion of working meetings with local stakeholders. This range also includes the provision of additional assistance, already after the implementation of MNCs in that location, in order to favor the decisions of expansions and reinvest ments made by such companies, such as the availability of a database of local suppliers and ombudsman services. This study also indicates the importance of APIs engaging in the creation and permanent review of strategic planning. Such document assumes the function of subsidizing the elaboration of the instruments of attraction and retention of FDI to be adopted by the Agencies. In addition, this Text for Discussion indicates the importance of the process of evaluating the policies practiced by the APIs, with a view to ascertaining the effectiveness of these policies, in addition to indicating the need for any adjustments, changes in priorities, as well as the range of instruments used.
