Are there any non immigrant workers with visa applying/collected unemployment? I’m on a O1 visa and would like to file, but worried how heavily this will affect Public Charge in the future.

I don’t believe unemployment benefits would be considered a Public Charge when you apply for a green card down the road, as unemployment benefits is paid by the state and you had contributed to it through taxes. Google is unemployment benefits a public charge and it should come up.

I clearly remember there is a question when you apply for the US passport around this. Also it gets reported to the IRA. This is on your record.

I don’t think you can apply for unemployment on Visa. I know for a fact they will flag you for public charge later on. Not worth it imho.

I’d avoid if you’re thinking of switching to green cars etc down the line

Any advice?

Hi Everyone,

Need some inputs before making an important decision.
I have offer from Cognizant and they are promising that next quarter they will initiate my Canada visa. They are giving assurance when I spoke to them over call. Also, my current employer Accenture is also saying the same to retain me. Can I believe Cognizant? Also, Canada onsite is best in which company - Accenture or Cognizant. Please suggest based on your experience.

Thanks in advance!

Should I keep waiting or try calling again or send an email? Don’t want to be too aggressive but also want to hear their update & hopefully schedule next round interview

So, I'm happy at my current job and have been there about 18 months. Our pay is probably 15% below market (AmLaw 100) but so are our billable requirements. An interview for another firm kind of fell into my lap, and I'm debating whether to take it just for the sake of seeing what market really is. Is there something shady about interviewing somewhere you're not totally committed to accepting an offer from?

My total experience is around 7+ years and am currently working in a MNC from the past 4 years. I was planning to make a switch to some other company but recently my manager has mentioned to me in person and as well as on my appraisal feedback (in writing) that I will be nominated for the H1B visa in the coming cycle. This was in July 2022. Should I be worried that it won't happen or should I start looking for the switch.?
