Hi everyone. A PDM specialist here. Joined Deloitte 5+ years back as ‘Senior Solution Engineer -On-site’.Later in June 2017 all these ‘on-site’ folks got rebranded as PDM. Slowly started to realize how PDM is getting sidelined as a ‘discountable’ group. Sometimes I feel contract jobs are better than being at PDM , but obviously tied up with D for visa related issues.No career progression so far and don’t see any positive changes in the near future as well.I think it’s high time to call it a day.

Hi Fishes,

1. Without an approved i140, you have 6 years of H1B VISA. That’s it.
2. If you’ve already consumed 2, you’ve got 4 left.
3. When you finish your education, and assuming you find a job that sponsors immigrants, you’ll be reinstated and you’ll have 1 year on H1b before it has to be renewed for 3 more.
4. The benefit here is that when you’re hired, since you already have had H1b, you’re able to fully utilize your CPT (1 year) and then apply to reinstate H1b. Effectively giving you 7 years of possible employment in USA.
5. Green card situation is only going to get worse - not to disappoint you or anything - but it’s the truth. So, if you’re back on H1b (assuming you get a job which you will), don’t sit back and relax. Figure out what your options are.
Check if your MBA program is STEM. That buys extra time.
I was in a similar situation and unable to recapture the unused time. In my case, I was still on my first H1 and was able to get a second H1 for 3 years after MBA
