In the US on a visa and so worried about losing my job. It’s all I can think about. It’s hard to even get a new visa at this stage. Couldn’t easily go back to my country (got obligations here). ☹️

I’m waiting for citizenship. It’s taking forever. The last time I got laid off (the last crisis) I was able to transfer my H1B visa, hopefully the rules are still the same.

I looked into it and there’s a 60 day grace period to transfer your H1-B. Not a lot of time but you’d just have to hit the job search really quickly

H1-B. I don’t know what happens if you lose your job on it. Maybe not transferable anymore

He reached out this week after 9 months+ asking for a visa sponsor to take a vacay in my country (given mobility restriction these days), and asked me to hook him up with a business visa referral letter thru my connections. He also said he’s coming with gf. I said im happy to write him a personal reference letter, but wont be able to get him a business one. Is this rude?

Hot take, for those who received a stimulus based on FY19 or FY18 returns why doesn’t the government make people pay it back in the FY20 return if they don’t qualify based on the actual tax year stimulus was for? I understand why they couldn’t wait but IrS knows who received it so it isn’t hard to implement. Could have used the anticipated saving coming back to fund more stimulus for those who truly needed it.
