Hi H1B fam, does anyone know current visa appointment times for US consulates in Canada? Are all of them processing H1B applications or are they limited? Thanks!

Wait time info on website is usually wrong. It showed 2 days for Calgary to me and when i reaches appointment schedule screen, earliest availability was 3 months down the line.
I escalated and got an expedited appointment for 5 days later in Vancouver. Appeared for interview on Friday (last week), they couriered the passport to Toronto on Tuesday, passport reached Toronto today and now I am 2 min away from my home in the US

Know that USCIS in Canada closes stamping for TCNs starting June. I'd recommend Mexico if Canada isn't an option

Canada is like 3 to 4 months and limited slots for Third country nationals.

You can check directly on US govt website. Google plz

It’s at least 2 months , but keep checking frequently

I heard that the info on the US websites is for Canadian nationals and not for TCNs... my lawyers told me Canada isn’t accepting appointment until Fall 2020, which just doesn’t sound believable

Check on the appointment booking site. Irrespective of current availability, keep checking. Slots open up frequently because of cancellations.

Hello everyone!
I recently found out that I was being paid less than everyone in the team (more than 25% gap to more expe teammates, around 15% less than new hires)
We all had the same responsibilities, I consider I even had a heavier workload (talking in past tense since I very recently made an internal move).
Things to consider:
On a work visa
Non-white
Non-male
What would you recommend doing?
Keeping it to myself?
Speaking up? How? With who?

-TIA
