@D1 is right. She's going to struggle - Deloitte requires minimum 6 months, and a completed performance review, for GC sponsorship. Sounds like this... friend may need to spend a year out of the country and return on a fresh H1B.
She can claim any time spent outside the country during this 6yr period for extended H1B if she is looking for additional time till she figures her situation out. I think EY is the same, you need to be in the firm atleast for a year prior to GC processing. But they may have some flexibility there.
You are a principal, please don't be an embarrassment to that title.
For a "friend"
Principal 'Bossman', let him/her be. Already tensed...
Oh boy. Jump. GC trumps everything else. Promotion be damned. I got my gc and can now tell employers to fuck off.
It can't be op. Op you get two 3 year h-1 terms, and after the 6th year get an extension only if the gc application has been approved and you are waiting for the gc date. I got a 7th year extension. There is zero point in staying at PwC without the GC in the bag. Good luck. And Principal 1 you are likely a privileged white male troll. Let her be.
I've suggested switching to another big 4 any getting the title. Does anyone know if her visa would get another 3 year extension if she transfers?
Switch firms/go to industry with first condition being GC sponsorship. Most of the big tech/healthcare/retail companies sponsor GC.
That's really shitty of her leadership
She got passed up for manager EY2, and multinational managers need company sponsorship.
How long does it take to get the I140?
Xx
Is she into her 6th year on h1b? If so, she needs an approved I140 before her 6th year ends
P1, yes it is for a friend. I would have no qualms saying it if it were for me especially given FB's anonymity.
D1, she gets into her 6th in September and does not have nor would have an I140 given her leadership's refusal to move on the GC process.
There are other companies who are often willing to immediately start the green card process, but they need to be that desperate.
Grad school is a third option. She'd get into grad school before the h-1 expires, and can then get new opt with the f-1. She should consult an immigration attorney.
D1 - you are right. Microsoft is one of them.
Unfortunately very few options, your GC process should have started prior to entering the 6th year. Even if he/she joins another firm it is a year long process to even get to that point. So unfortunately grad school is the only option
