Hi, Is it possible to find a Strategy or Management Consulting job in the UK without being there? I did Masters from Europe and currently working in Europe. I am not sure which companies consider applications and offer tier 2 or other work visa? Moreover, does referral works in this case?

I know some of my friends are doing EB3 visa (unskilled workers) and they already got GC after 1.5 years. I was really surprise that it takes unskilled workers route much shorter time. So what is preventing ppl from biting the bullet for a year working on farms or fast food chains and gets GC quickly? I’m genuinely curious.

anyone currently working at GT right now on an H1B visa? Would love to get your advice on a few things.

In second phase of H1B extension. Thinking of initiating GC. But also wanna take some break! Either go to India for a short break or take a small break down the lane.

So wondering when is the contd

Norwegian living in Norway with my Canadian GF. Planning to move to Canada due to her
visa running out. SC at Deloitte working mainly as a Solution Architect +
DevOps Engineer, but also experience with Cloud Strategy and IT DD's. Should I
be able to find a company to sponsor my visa, or is my best bet an internal
transfer? Any other tips? Thank you in advance!

I came to US on an L1b in 2018 and switched to H1b in 2021 Oct. Current 797/visa expiry is stated as July 2023, by which I would have spent 1.5 years on H1b visa (and 3.5 years on L1b before that). During h1b extension , will I get another 4.5 years of extension? How does extension work when u switch visas?

My H1B is in RFE status since my educational degree is in electrical and electronics engineering and I am working as software engineer, any idea on what documentation that they might expect to get approve it

Any parents under H1B? I was@looking to get an au pair for kids and got to know that I cannot host one because I don’t have a green card yet. Any options? I heard people get au pairs that have another year remaining in their visa but couldn’t find one yet

I’m an immigration paralegal but I have an MA in human rights. I’ve been working at my org for 2 1/2 years but I don’t see an upwards growth for me unless I go to law school but that is really expensive and it’ll take a few years. I’ve tried to seek promotion to Senior paralegal but I’ve been told I don’t have enough experience. Does anyone have any advice on what organizations may be interested in hiring someone with my experience?

Is it standard to get revocation notice for H1B petition from older employee after transfer and approval of the petition with new employer? Has anyone here faced it before or know what does that mean?

Signed offer with deloitte and set to join this month but they messed up and have not even started my visa application process yet… recruiter immigration team and recruitment team all not responding. What to do now?

Guys, need one fair suggestion.should a 8 yrs exp IT person should wait for Onsite (no date defined,visa on process probably last stage) or better switch with 22Lpa packge (another MNC) in native metro city.

Heard second lottery results are coming out? Anyone heard from D immigration team? I know they are super slow

any remote paralegal positions open ? i have family immigration experience !

Anyone who has/ heard of fbookers who successfully switched roles and gotten a promotion (L3 to L4)?

Context I am planning a switch from analyst to data scientist from a non US location to US. However, L4 is needed for this jump (prob due to visa issues). With the current revamp in PSC cycle, I am not sure if I can successfully get promoted by next year and make the jump. To do so, I heard there needs to be 2 EE (for this half and next half).

YOE 5, BASE 100K

Just got to know VISA doesn't give lease breakage/First month rent/first month rent its kind of they give either relocation of stuff or one of those things (Only 1 option) which is weird to me.. I thought they are big FINTECH company..also they economy class ticket ..which is super low.

Any speech therapist or accent trainer that can help me improve my pronunciation? I have been working on slowing down and speaking more clearly (working on my prosidy) but (continued)...

Is anyone preparing statements for leadership today in response to yesterday’s.... everything? (Lol) our employees are reeling, anxiety is high and we are coordinating a response to include guidance for managers in directing employees to our EAP and reassessing workload this week.

Anyone keen for an Australian salary benchmarking exercise? We could set up a shared spreadsheet and let people enter their firm, level, time at level, etc. Would be keen to build our own collective dataset given we don't get to see the vencon (spelling?) salary benchmarking data for ourselves.

If this already exists, please let me know

Hello All, Can someone help me what would be the salary range for L5 and L6 in Non Tech

I’ve worked 2 years at a non profit 501c 3 tech startup. When I started there were 6 employees we now have 22. I am considered a part of leadership and am a people manager in addition to my sales role. I am a high performer and last year got a 10% raise (which I asked for). This year I was offered 5%. I am going to counter but curious what anyone thinks I should ask for. I was thinking 8%.

Question: Since Deloitte does not offer premium processing, is that something I can request for personally and pay towards?

How long is the PERM recruitment process at Deloitte / in general once PWD is received?

Those eligible to file AOS in October but priority date not current yet. Are y'all just hoping to get EAD sooner and avoid this prevailing wage nightmare or is there also a hope of GC sooner like in the next 2 years? I am trying to gauge if I should have a GC dream yet or that is still far fetched. Mar 2011 eb2 for context.

Hey fishes. Where do you guys invest you excess cash in US. I don't plan to settle in US, looking to move back to my home country in few years. Also EY has restrictions on where we can invest. Any recommendations will be appreciated. Thanks!

Fishes - In order to change employers, do we need a I-485 petition pending for 180 days or more in addition to an approved i140? I’m trying to figure out any issues on changing employers post i140 approval but i485 not filed yet. TIA!

Anyone went through a situation where you submitted your notice period just a week before 180 days I-140 rule being validated? How did the process go for you?

I changed from F1 to H1B last year in October. Does anyone know if I should file a 1040 or 1040NR?

Travel Question - recently got my greencard/PR card. I will be traveling out of the U.S tomorrow. Do I need any documents apart from the greencard/PR card to get back in? When I had H1b status, I always had a folder of documents. Wondering whether there’s still a need for that. Thank you

Can employee revoke PERM? I’m thinking about going back to an original company where my PERM was filed, do I need a new PERM ?

Has anyone done H1b re-stamping while on leave of absence?

Have you seen examples of those with L1-B visa changing the employers? I know that L1 visa broadly ties you to your sponsor employer, so in case you are laid off / want to switch jobs; pretty much you are asked to leave the states; so was wondering if there are workarounds to that end.

Moving to the US on an L1-A. Does kpmg sponsor Green card? How long is the process to get a green card?
