How long does it take for big 4 public accounting firms to prepare your perm ? I have less than 3 years left when I joined them so wanted to ask if the timeline will work for me Because the perm has to be filed at least 1 year before I reach 6 year h1b.

I worked at PwC. It took them 9-12 months to file my PERM, after I joined them, with explicit promise to start my GC as soon as I join. Normally most big 4 have a criteria of 1 year of employment before they start GC. So make sure you clarify if they'll start your GC immediately after you join the firm.

What did you do to make them willing to file PERM right after you join? Do you know what the policy looks like now? Thanks!

I'm a SWE from Italy. Love my country but salary and taxes here are outrageous. Got 2yrs experience in fullstack and data science, 2masters, a peer reviewed paper and outperform all my peers for 24k€ a year.
I'm thinkin about landing a remote SWE job (leetcoding and building a portfolio this summer).
Have you got some advice? Is it possible to work for US remotely without visa? What other countries pay well? Is it possible to land a 100k$+ with this kind of experience and working from Italy?
