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

Hello - thinking of starting a small side coaching practice. Could use a bit of help because I've never thought about opening a side hustle but times are tough with two kids in college.

1. What is the best approach to collecting your fee? Each session? Pay the package cost upfront,? Other, and if so, what is it?
2. How do you collect it? Venmo? Credit card?
3. Do you have to register your business?

Thank you in advance for any guidance.

I’ve been on an H1B for many years with an approved I-140. Can I work outside of the US for 1 year (in Canada where I am a permanent resident) and come back on an L1? I understand the green card processing time on L1 is significantly faster.
