I accepted the offer on 28th March and my joining date is May 2nd.. The recruiter mentioned the dates can be pushed further as per the approval process of H1B.
My process has not started yet with respect to documentations etc. Glad to know that they do premium processing.

The catch is I already file my tax without those FICA tax. Should I pay them and file tax amendment?
