And is the process different when you are currently on L1?

Earliest is Oct 1st I think

You're currently on L1? Then keep working under L1 and on 10/1 it's a change of status to H1

then 10/1

Anyone know which firms currently sponsor green cards for tax people? I had to switch firms with an approved I-140 and had my H-1B transferred to the current firm but they likely won’t help with my green card application. It’s a tough situation and I really want to get to the finish line with all the time spent waiting. Any tips or advice is appreciated. Thanks in advance!
