Did you get selected/approved as of this lottery? If so, you have to wait until October for the status to kick in before you can transfer.

Then you can switch whenever! The FAANG company can initiate the transfer. It’s generally safer to wait until the transfer is approved before you switch to your new employer - if they use premium processing, it takes two weeks to get a decision from USCIS. You can technically join on receipt of the transfer petition, but this is risky in case the petition gets denied.

Wait till the transfer is over and then give 2 weeks.

exact same process you had with EY, only diff will be new application will go with Faang position, firm, salary and location.

My American citizen 8 month old is on tourist visa in India; current stay runs out on June 7. Flying outside the country is a risk we don’t want to take w/COVID. Don’t want to overstay the visa either. So we applied online on eFRRO to convert his visa to X-1 so we can apply for his OCI. They didn’t ask for payment and message popped up saying watch your text/email for next steps. Anything else I can do?
