Where are they with you GC did they start PWD?

PWD is complete and interview process was ongoing before the GC process was suspended .

I believe u can’t file GC on F1. Unfortunately options are limited for you. What’s the possibility of Filing ur Perm ?

8 months is still enough to get it started and get it started and be on stop gap

I don’t think company can apply for I-140 if you are on F1 status. Speak with your group’s partner and get approval to resume your GC process. Make sure the partner is aware of the impact: you might lose your job, be out of status, you might have to join school full-time, financial cost, etc.

If PERM process gets completed before 8 months, you can at least apply for 1 year H-1B extension. If I-140 gets completed before 8 months, you can apply for 3 year H-1B extension.

The attorneys can also recapture the time you spent outside the US on H-1B status.

I came into a hedge fund job as an analyst in February of this year and didn’t negotiate my bonus at the outset. I was coming from tech and needed a green card so didn’t have much room to do so.

With bonus season coming up, I have a feeling my PM is going to underpay me. Should I bring up the subject myself? Also, how do I get a sense of what I’m worth? I did not trade but was the main data guy and built a tool that is indispensable for our process. Is 10% of his cut of PnL reasonable?
