Is there anyone here who have less than 2 years remaning in their H1 visa but still got hired by new employer? Just wondering if its still ok to jumpship at EY - i have 20 mos left. I was told that they need to have minimum of 2 yrs but there’s exception to those who have approved I-140. How did it go for you? Did EY expedite your GC processing?

Big 4s will delay the GC process and eventually make you regret joining them. There are many consulting companies which are credible and get your i140 done in a year. Go join them. I regret staying with D every single day!

Feel free to DM. I have a couple that I trust.

That’s a gross over generalization D1. I have friends in all Big4 and they’re always willing to start the process a year into the firm. Needs the practitioner to be proactive of course but the firms don’t intentionally delay it for you.
