Everything else equal, would you take an offer that is 30k higher in comp (180k vs 150k) but will start GC in 1 year or a lower offer that starts on Day 1?

My H1B expires in Sept. 2023, and can be extended for 3 more years.

Struggling to turn down the higher pay.

I’d go with Day 1 GC to be honest. Play the long game. You’ll have more opportunities with GC in your hands, but none if you don’t get it by the time your H1B expires. That being said, you have plenty of time on H1B and can probably afford to go with the higher offer solely based on that

If you r from a backlogged country take the day 1 option, else you should still be fine given you have enough time on ur h1.

You have so many years on H1B. Defn, higher pay. 100%

If you are Indian/Chinese, go with Day 1 GC so you can enter the queue. If you can get that kind of offer now, you can get it again with more experience. If not backlogged, definitely take the money.
