Hi all, I am finishing up my Ph.D. And I am trying to break into consulting. If I go in more traditional role with my background, I would be working in pharma. I do not see any visa related issues in pharma. But, I am wondering if I switch to consulting, do I need to worry about complicated visa situation in case of recession and H1b approval?

Anyone familiar with nanny taxes?
We've always just paid cash to our previous nannies and our new one is requesting to be paid via a W-2.

Please keep unhelpful judgments to a minimum regarding us trying to pay cash

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?
