did anyone had discussion with deloitte immigration / TBA to plan LOA in wake of h1b max out and perm still in process? i believe several of us are maxing out due to huge delays and backlog by DOL ...

Hi Folks,

Anybody recently went through the H1B transfer process?

How much time does it take starting from the lawyer reaching out to you and then you receiving the approval.

Does Deloitte sponsor H1Bs? The website says they don’t sponsor, so slightly confused as I see people here posting about having offers and will be soon going though H1B process. For context I am not in the USA.

My L visa has expired and the renewal is not yet approved. The lawyer told me that since we applied for renewal, pending approval my work authorization is extended for a another 240 days. Now, can i still renew my driving license if my i 94 is expired?

Can I start a side hustle on H1-B visa? Need to know the legal procedure to be followed. Any links to simplified details?

Can H1B holders filed unemployment when serving grace period for 60 days? D provided information in Separate Memorandum?

Question on UK visa-
My partner will be traveling often to London, once a month for an year starting September. He is getting his visa through work (10 years, multiple entry, 6 months max stay, cost some $1000).

I have applied for standard tourist visa in the past and they are usually short term. It could be max 6 months, but they see your itinerary and allocate you few months around the itinerary

Is there a way to get 6 months multiple entry visa, if I were to join him once in a while.

If I have accepted an offer from a UK company and they have initiated my visa process; meanwhile I get a better offer from another company which will also have to support my visa; does the second company then pick up the previous visa process on the same application number or it starts a fresh process with different application number.

What happens if there are two visa applications submitted on my name by two companies?

My company sponsored my tier 2 visa in the UK.

If I leave, does that visa stay with me or will I need to be sponsored again by another company?

I have a job offer in Australia and the company is offering to apply for a TSS visa for me. But they can't give me any idea on timeline. I've heard anything from a month to 9 months. Has anyone here gone through this and knows how long it would take during Covid times?

Hi everyone, a question to the tech industry at large.

Hey, everyone! Hoping someone may have a lead for a free online database for training approvals and registrations? It doesn’t need to be fancy! I’m in a new role in the public sector and am trying to move them out of Outlook and Excel messiness for training registrations. I’m just looking to streamline and centralize the process. (We don’t have SharePoint or any centralized database.) Thanks in advance!

I received a TS/SCI job offer upon which I turned down for personal reasons. However, I'd completed a full-scope polygraph in the process and was wondering if I'm eligible for federal contracting roles. Does anybody know how I can determine my clearance status?

Hi! I recently switched to a new employer, who promised in writing on email that they’d start my GC process right after I complete 3 months with the firm. I’m currently on the 4th month and the process has not yet begun.
Please note that I have to give a couple of exams/certifications, one of which I failed very recently. This is keeping me from asking my employer about the GC process. Am I being irrational? Any advice or help would be highly appreciated. Thank you.

Has anyone recently done an H1B transfer? How long is it taking on premium processing?

Does it matter if I don’t meet the specific job requirements when transferring H1B? The job posted requires CPA license but I haven’t got it. The employer is still willing to hire me. I know for PERM process, meeting minimum requirements is important but not sure if H1B have such requirement. I heard that for H1B as long as it’s a position requiring bachelors degree and specifically occupation that should be fine. But kinda worried about this.

I believe most members of this group are tense & anxious owing to the uncertainty surrounding H1b. Can we have members post some positive stories here ? Cases of extension/transfer approval( w/wo RFE)

Hey y'all,
How do I transfer employee from Ireland entity to the USA entity? (Visa not required, they're a US citizen)

What's the contract changes legalities I should keep in mind?
Or any general tips and pointers you can offer are very appreciated. Thank you

So
- I didn't get selected in the H1B lottery.
- My company has agreed to send me to their London office for a year (haven't yet filed application).
- OPT ends in late June, so I can stay till mid-late August (grace period).

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?
