Folks who got their green card recently through EB2 recently. 1) When did you get it? 2) What was your priority date? 3) What nationality?

For those who travel every week to the client location - Do you file H1B location ammendment for every client you go to? I travel every week and am staffed on 8-12 week projects.

Hello,

I am a software test analyst and a BA, I am interested to grab a onsite opportunity with a visa sponsorship could someone please guide me with a valid platform.

ACN 🐠- Has anyone been able to transfer from Big 4 or any other firm to ACN and got them to transfer H1B? I have an approved I140 if that helps.

Ranting on H1B transfer process: LCA submitted for approval on January 6th. Still haven’t heard anything. My start date is 2/22/2021 but I really can’t wait to submit my notice...oh the waiting game...

Finally, I have put down my papers in Infosys, today. While it was fairly good tenure with Infosys (been getting consistently commendable ratings), it was not so good when it came to benefits given by company. Also, the assurance given by managers for onsite opportunities, the moment you indicate you might leave, is a bluff. They will apply visa and this and that without any onsite assignment available. I have read cases people holding H1B for 2 years and yet never got the opportunity to go

My partner (along with his team) has been laid off from an equity research role. He is on H1b visa and has until end of February to find a new job otherwise he’ll have to leave the country. I would be very grateful if someone knows of any sell-/buyside investment analyst opportunities and can refer, please. Years of experience: 9yrs. Always been with II-ranked teams and twice voted rising star. Thank you very much for your time and consideration.

Hi Folks, I'm looking for supply chain consulting role in UK. Preferably in digital transformation.

I'll need a visa sponsorship

What to do with stocks/crypto accumulated in US, sell them when moving back to home country after completing H1B ? What about taxation when you hold and sell later ?

Moved to Canada on a work permit but recently got my PR approved. It’s been a 4 month wait to get the actual PR card and I have a family trip coming up soon. Can I still travel and get back into the country with no issues given that I still have a work visa (W1) on my passport? Not sure if my change of status nulls my current visa

Is there anyone who came to US for courses eligible for CPT and was successful in getting a job and staying through H1B process ? Will appreciate an opportunity to chat.

Hi Fishes, working in TCS, Help me choose below option.
TCS giving USA onsite, ~80k USD ( H1B was expired, came back to India, still 3 years left, have approved H1B extension, not stamped yet) - CCTC - 9.25L
Infosys 24L (21-F,3-V)
JPMC - 28L Fixed.

Would it be possible to use my H1B in infosys/JPMC in future.? I don't have new H1B extension docs with me. Can H1B employer be changed in india ? Infosys JPMorgan Chase

Why are some people willing to do anything / obsessed about getting the green card in the U.S.?

When I asked them, they usually say they like American lifestyle. I love lifestyle in France, but I was in France, I was OK if I can't stay. Just trying to understand here so that I can have more empathy.

Can H1B employer be changed when person is in india. ?

Filed for H1B extension cap-exempt. Extension got approved. Not stamped yet. Now I am moving to jpmorgan. JPMC ready to send USA after one year if H1B can be utilised. Wanted to know if H1B employer can be changed in india (unstamped visa). ?

Is there a way of bypassing the H1B lottery? I was told by an external recruiter that if I joined their London team, after a year I could go through H1B process without the lottery. My preference is to remain with Deloitte and transfer - can Deloitte put me through without the lottery? Are there stipulations such as minimum tenure or degree types etc?

I accepted an offer from Cognizant for a consultant position a little less than a month ago. My joining date is 5th September and I would need visa sponsorship. I have completed my pre joining formalities and background verification. The thing is I haven’t heard from HR in a while and no update as yet on visa sponsorship process. Should I be worried?

Hey mates, I have an overall experience of 14 years with 6lakh CTC. Started my career in BPO though I am from computer science background and then proved myself for the IT movement within the same company before 8 years (6 years in BPO and 8 years in IT). Nothing is changed financially but in a better role. Have got certified in GCP. I stayed here for too long because I was looking for an onshore opportunity but now luck is not favouring me in H1B lottery. Looking for your valuable suggestions!

Deloitte onboarding E-mail says , it background verification is not complete by target start date , they can postpone the date last minute.
I have 14th march as a start date and I don’t know my background verification status.
I emailed BIONBoarding but no response.
How am I supposed to give notice to my current employer without knowing BGC status ?
Please advise if someone faced this situation.
(P.S. I don’t have any record, just being cautious because I am on H1B/work visa)

Looking for a referral at top US consulting firms that do sponsor H1b visa transfer. I am based in LA but open to any locations in the US. I have over 10 years of consulting experience. Thank u for your time and help!

Need advice. Currently at $142k base. 3 years and 1 month left before I max out of H1b. Just got my PWD issued through current employer though their immediate reaction is subtly letting me know they’re not in a hurry to start recruitment. Got an offer today for $160k base. Similar role, both are good teams, etc. Do I politely decline and see my GC process through or accept and get more money? Feel like current employer will drag their feet as long as they can for retention purposes.

Top Corp Dev teams: Trying to find the “top” (using this as short hand, I know it’s subjective) PE shops had a bunch of resources to use. However, there are no such resources (please share if I’m wrong!) for “top” Corp dev teams. “Top” is probably some mix of caliber of people, comp, ~prestige~, etc. let’s hear y’all’s top Corp dev teams!

I make a set salary due to the firm I work for as an account manager/ coordinator for clients… I coordinate their enrollments, working with each groups HR department as to benefits and payroll purposes, and schedule our benefit counselors accordingly.
