EY is offering Fall Leave Program which includes some unpaid vacation as well. How will it affect my visa? Do I need to inform my Law Team?

Can we take unpaid leave on H1B Visa?

Hm who’s right here?

What is Fall Leave program...

Depends, if you take the 16 week you get 4 week pay. If you do the 12 week I think you get around 3 weeks pay - that sorta thing.

You can’t take sabbatical though like partially paid sabbatical, at least that’s what I was told a year ago.

Definitely talk with your attorney and give them a copy of the policy

Might as well leave the country during this time and you will save that much time on OPT. But then... there is risk under this admin I guess

I meant H1B

If the firm has not initiated your Gc process, know that the time on your leave doesn’t count towards the 1 year tenure requirement at EY to initiate it

They sent an email about this a few hours ago.

I have 32k miles with THY that are about to expire.
