H1B folk what company have you worked at or know that files I-40 pretty quickly. EY files after like 5 years and I can’t wait for that I need my freedom please

What is the salary range for Deloitte SM in other firms? Do you consider strong delivery and team management bigger strengths? Does h2b visa matter in that case?

Hi Folks, My last visa was stamped in India while my wife’s h4 in canada.
My question is she eligible for dropbox in India?
I know pre pandemic it wasnt possible but has the situation changed lately ?
Much TIA!!

Can I get H1B visa stamp annotated with (future employer) while I serve my (current) employer’s notice period?
I have a job offer from Meta and awaiting my H1B transfer approval notice. I have never received an H1B visa stamp before. I want to work from India (& get H1 stamped with Meta based on offer letter+approval notice) during my notice period, followed by 2 weeks of unemployment, and start my new job at Meta once I return to the US.

Hello, Need an advice on my offer from Deloitte. I am on OPT and looking for H1B sponsorship this year, recruiter said they will do it but I am wondering if I join after 2 weeks will they be able to do it as there won’t be much time left. My current company will file H1 for me. I got an offer for a consultant role at D with 25$k extra than my current salary and 10$k sign in bonus but I am currently working as a Sr Con. Is it advisable to take a risk in my case considering H1 as a priority?

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...

BAL and Fragomen associates, has their been any effort to push associate salaries up? If not, what is their excuse?

It seem like the two biggest immigration firms are severely lagging behind in compensation while other larger firms with immigration practices are pushing up comp.

Tax question: my SM changed my hours with a location I never worked at, from 2020. When I asked for a change, he is hesitant since it’s a long process. Would it cause any issue on visa if I filed a tax to a state I never worked in?

Applied for a spouse visa, anyone have any ideas on how long it’s been typically taking? Website states 3-12 months so wondering if it’s been on the longer end or shorter end in the recent past!

Need advise ,
I have my Dropbox appointment for H1b stamping .
I have taken PTO for 3 weeks but Chennai consulate is taking about 6 weeks to complete . My question is should I apply for PTO for another 3 weeks or should I take LOA (no sure if I’m allowed to take on H1B visa)

Currently interviewing with Visa for a Program Manager position. After a panel interview, what is the "normal" wait time to hear back? How quickly does Visa move? Thanks!

Any company (consulting or others) still sponsoring h1b visa or green card for new hires?

After you accepted an offer form a Big 4, how long does it takes them to file for your H1b? Assuming registration is open

Can I teach a class in a college and get paid on H1b without telling my sponsor (Deloitte)?

Is anyone in this group spent 4 years in public accounting audit still waiting for his/her employer to start Labor petition perm process? I have only 2 years left with my h1b now, during this unprecedented time I am worried if the firm may not be willing to incur additional cost? Please let me know if anyone in this group have faced the similar situation?

Rejected by google. Very depressed as was hoping to escape big4 consulting esp with all these h1b crap going on. Unsure of next move- hate going again on the interview treadmill which is depressing

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?

Anyone have trouble getting in contact with Deloitte’s immigration team? They never seem to respond over email. Is there another way to reach them?

My wife is a Software engineer - QA with 2 Yoe, now we are thinking to move to Canada, can someone please guide us on which 2 year course can she pick (for student visa), is data science related course a wise decision? Or how to find a QA related PG program.
Preferably in Victoria, British Columbia

Hi All :) I need advise on whether it is possible to get my first time H1B stamped at a US consulate in Canada ? I am required to travel to Canada anyway for my PR stamping and I am trying to figure out if I can get my H1B stamped around the same time while I am in Canada for my PR, since it is extremely difficult to get appointments in India these days? I am currently based in US. Thanks!

Can the H1-B extension be filed when I am not physically in the US ? I am currently impacted by the travel ban and not sure if I will be able to travel to the US before the current visa/petition expiry.

Do you feel that in SEO there are too many ways of conducting the same tasks. I have had a string of managers within the past year, it’s starting to get very annoying as each person says method A is wrong and B is right, another manager would have the complete opposite view. Have you had similar experiences when this practice and adjustment begins to interfere with client deliverables.

Currently, nothing exciting about my job at Big 4 so, would like to give myself 4-6 months before I give a shot at FAANG+M, any suggestions on what key skills I should focus on and tips for interview prep?

Is there other promising career paths I can transition to within tech?

Can the H1-B extension be filed when I am not physically in the US ? I am currently impacted by the travel ban and not sure if I will be able to travel to the US before the current visa/petition expiry.
