it's always suggested to go to home country (because if you get 221g at least you are in your "home" country)... I have had it in diff countries (including Mexico, home country).. if you go to Mexico I'd suggest choose Guadalajara, won't be as crowded as Mex city, and it is home of the tequila, mariachi, and great food.. drive 3 hrs to Vallarta (have the visa shipped there)

Why if you are on H1B is so much problematic for vendors looking for contractors ?

An agency I freelance for wants to hire me full-time. They told me for a Sr Copywriter, 100-110k. I countered with 125-150.

I also said I'm interested in a higher-level title - I currently freelance as a Creative Director of Copy elsewhere (they don't have that title at this agency.)

They came back and said yes to the title and to 125, with a 6 month review that could raise it to 145.

Which is good for Sr Copy, but low for CD/ACD level. Don't want to screw myself over. What to say now?
