Can you negotiate a Green card application as a benefit on a job offer? I have 2 years on OPT remaining and I am from a country that has a wait time of 10 months on average for GC processing?

Yes.

You can try but putting that into contract is kind of impossible. At best you could get a verbal assurance they would file it in time.

You can try......good luck

FANNG does day 1 green card. It really depends on companies.

Thank you for letting me know that’s great!

Doesn't hurt to ask

Yes, you definitely can negotiate but they wouldn't do it on day1! I was in the same boat and the company I worked back then (200+ employee legit consulting company) started my GC application while I was on OPT. However I was already working for them for a year and they were ready to try everything to keep there. I don't think this thing you can negotiate formally before joining and since it's a grey area for many companies they wouldn't put it on your offer letter either. What you need is first to make sure with a recruiter if the company is open for that and if they say yes then you need to confirm with your direct manager and get their words for it. Probably after you stated working if they are super happy with your performance they would do it down the road.
