Last month I changed my employer to a new one with proper exit process and have got new H1B approved petition.

We are reviewing your correspondence, and will send you a notice.

H1B needed.

How transparent is your firm about your H1B application? Do you get your application receipt number? I’ve worked really hard to get this job and made a lot of life changing decisions and worried about losing all this just because my application isn’t picked in lottery🥺🙁.

Does anyone here have any experience getting a H1B cap-exempt job? I’m here on an F1 OPT (consular H1B approved) and I’m trying to figure out how my SO can move here and continue working.

I am H1B and I’ve started my GC process. my husband is also on H1B but won’t get his GC sponsored until his next job. What happens if he has started the GC process but by then his H1B had run out? Can he still work while it’s pending with an application for EAD? Can he work as H4 under my H1B till I get my GC issued?

Such a pain to file LCA and amend H1B every time I travel somewhere for projects...sigh (working remotely sucks during this process)...

Fun question: if you have green card, which industry / role would you like to switch to? (and what is your current industry / role btw)

Can we do GLG type calls while on H1b? I get a lot of these requests but not sure if we are allowed to do this.

Need advice. Currently at $142k base. 3 years and 1 month left before I max out of H1b. Just got my PWD issued through current employer though their immediate reaction is subtly letting me know they’re not in a hurry to start recruitment. Got an offer today for $160k base. Similar role, both are good teams, etc. Do I politely decline and see my GC process through or accept and get more money? Feel like current employer will drag their feet as long as they can for retention purposes.
