Hi Everyone - so my PERM was filed in Mar’23 and my H1B max out is in Dec’23. Looking at DOL processing, it’s unlikely my PERM will be approved by then. So those who have gone through a similar situation, when you took a leave of absence and left US - did you close/sell everything? Or I guess how did you plan leaving US? I am unsure of what I should do (i.e with the appt & car lease and all the stuff) when I have to leave.. I am likely overthinking, but any advice, so that I can plan ahead? 🙏🏻

Based on the current processing times, shouldn’t your PERM be approved in next 2 months unless it goes into Audit?

You think there is a scope? I felt it to be extremely unlikely since right now, Sept’22 cases are being processed. Mine was submitted in Mar’23.

Correct me if I am wrong, but as far as i know you should get another 1 year extension as your PERM is being processed right now.

No unfortunately only when PERM has been filed for more than a year and it isn’t processed. I won’t meet that criteria

like

Not an actual answer but I think you can still apply for a one year extension with a start date of March 2024, and be away only for three months. Did your attorneys provide you this option?

Hello Fishes,

I have got my L2 Dependent Visa stamped for the US through the Wife's organization and she has booked the tickets for the both of us in the next weekend.

Can I travel to the US just like that and then continue my search within TCS from there or do I need any approvals to even fly in the first place?

I am worried because of the time crunch and will be glad to hear some points on this.

This one is for folks on h1b visa. So at time when you have an offer in hand(not accepted the offer yet and h1b transfer process not yet begun) while you are working with your current employer, do you even speak to your employer about your new offer to see if they make a counter offer?
Is there a risk involved with this approach assuming your current employer doesn't provide you with a counter offer and they ask you to leave immediately (and your h1b visa hasn't been transferred either)
