Hello Folks,
I wanted to seek your advice regarding an opportunity I’ve received. My employer has offered me an L1-B Blanket visa@ with a annual petitioned salary of $10,4000 , and the city of relocation is Atlanta, Georgia. My current CTC in India is 24 LPA (10 years IT exp).

Given this context, do you think it would be a wise decision to move to the U.S. with my spouse(Homemaker) and two kids(5 and 8 years).

Thanks!

104,000$ annually seems to be on the lower side. Should be at least 120-130k annually

It's lower my man.104000 is peanut in 2025. You won't be able to save more than 50 thousand to 70 thousand rupees per month. Initial few months would be zero savings. Not sure about job switch rules and regulations on L1 but in H1b job switch is also a hectic process. You should atleast ask for 135k usd so that you can save atleast 1-1.5 lakhs per month

Hlo sir

What you save in the US should be the same as in India. Kids education will be better in the US.

No point in moving completely unknown territory with having so much family responsibilities without significant upside.

You will get good exposure for kids. Take it and leave India
