Hi,
I am currently on an L1A visa. My H1B petition was selected and approved under consular processing in August 2024. Additionally, my PERM was filed on November 7, 2025.

I have not activated H1B and I am planning to switch to H1B from L1A sometime next year and would like your guidance on the following:
1. Would I be subject to the $100,000 fee?
2. When would be the optimal time to switch to H1B in order to maximize my spouse’s work authorization?

Venting a bit: Are you finding DEI groups at work overrun with allies. Is there also an increase in celebrating said allies? Is it just me?

Most of the groups I'm in (esp. event teams) are being taken over by allies wanting to do what they think should be done to 'celebrate' whatever topic the month is, usually speaking over marginalized coworkers and rarely consulting with them. It seems like the only time this doesn't happen is for gay (usually yt) men or BHM. I'm just feeling so...minimized.
