Easiest and Fastest is to do consular processing in your home country. He needs to get a copy of your i797 and passport and go for interview.

If he doesn’t need an EAD to work then no issues like M1 said. Your I797 and DS-160 is all that is needed.

Thanks!
He’s not going to be back to our home country before then, so do you know if he can go to Canada or file for change of status while in the US?

I think M1 answered your question before it was asked. You can file for COS in the US but it will take months

Change of status may take a few months and requires consular processing post approval at will when you leave. The wait times for change of status is most. When I consulted Murthy (paid) for similar situation h1-h4. They advised me to get consular processing directly instead of change of status. Coz then your EAD turn around is also quicker.

Hello, Need an advice on my offer from Deloitte. I am on OPT and looking for H1B sponsorship this year, recruiter said they will do it but I am wondering if I join after 2 weeks will they be able to do it as there won’t be much time left. My current company will file H1 for me. I got an offer for a consultant role at D with 25$k extra than my current salary and 10$k sign in bonus but I am currently working as a Sr Con. Is it advisable to take a risk in my case considering H1 as a priority?

I applied for a job at Visa and was contacted the same day. A few days later I had a 30-minute screening interview with the hiring manager. I knew I was very early in the process since the job had only been posted for a few days. It's been 3 weeks and I haven't heard back, even after reaching out to the recruiter. Have I been ghosted or is there still hope? Does anyone at Visa have insights? Looks like there are a ton of jobs posted so maybe they are just backed up?
