It's one very simple form (N400 I think). Takes less than an hour to complete. Most people I know did it themselves. Good luck!

It's a simple process but need for help might depend on your specific situation. Mine was a bit tricky as I traveled a lot out of the country during my green card so I preferred to lawyer up. It was only $750. Saw it as an insurance. Went very smoothly.

I came into a hedge fund job as an analyst in February of this year and didn’t negotiate my bonus at the outset. I was coming from tech and needed a green card so didn’t have much room to do so.

With bonus season coming up, I have a feeling my PM is going to underpay me. Should I bring up the subject myself? Also, how do I get a sense of what I’m worth? I did not trade but was the main data guy and built a tool that is indispensable for our process. Is 10% of his cut of PnL reasonable?
