Currently on H1B (exp. 2023) and getting married next week to my USC wife to be. I’m looking at other job opportunities outside of pwc. Does anyone have any recent experience on marriage EAD cards lately and the timeline? Aiming to leave pwc by next summer so hopefully want my EAD card by then to allow it.

First, let all your H1b friends know about the process of finding USC wives

D2, no. People who don't admit it call it "fell in love", and those who admit face the "ew" remarks. It doesn't just happen that you meet a USC. It's an an active conscious decision. I've known several (different ethnicities - Spanish, African, Indian etc.) who've gotten married to USC who pursued dates who were USC. No one will admit it publicly for fear of being ridiculed and considered selfish and fraud.

Came for judgemental comments . . Was not disappointed !!! 🙃👀

Context I am planning a switch from analyst to data scientist from a non US location to US. However, L4 is needed for this jump (prob due to visa issues). With the current revamp in PSC cycle, I am not sure if I can successfully get promoted by next year and make the jump. To do so, I heard there needs to be 2 EE (for this half and next half).

By any chance, does anyone have references in Singapore? I would be available immediately to join the organisation.

Question:
Should I just move to London as soon as I'm able to, or is it worth waiting until the end of my OPT in August in case they do a second round of the H1B lottery?
