Hi, does applying for the green card lottery reduce chances for H1B? Or will the two processes not affect each other? Thank you!

It shouldn’t affect. The lottery is for diversity countries, if you are from India we are not in that diversity lottery list. Please checks the uscis website

I would be starting my EB1C GC process very soon and I would be eligible for PP since my PD is June 2021. So assuming everything goes fine, I will have my i140 in around 3 months considering my firm takes 1-1.5 months for documentation. I am not going for concurrent filing since my wife will come here after 4-5 months. I am wondering if there will be any cooling period because of my wife’s late arrival to the states for filing i485 or we can file as soon as she is here. Contd.

If my H1B gets approved while i’m on a project in a state other than my home office, do I have to leave the project?
