Manager on H1B. Green card wait is 150 year for EB2. What about moving to Canada for 1 year and join back in US. Will PwC consider to switch my green card from EB2 to EB1. Any thoughts?

They should. Generally, you can move to EB1 with international managerial experience. I had confirmed this exact strategy with PwC Law prior to starting a secondment. They've done it for others too.

I see. I too hope to be able to click in the funny emoji once I finish my secondment.

150 year wait? Surely that's an exaggeration.

Don't do it!

Let’s consider +1 from today 😀

Isn’t it much faster now? Even for Indians, EB3 is moved up to 2015 for the October visa bulletin and EB2 can be downgraded. How is the many years of wait calculated?

Honestly, all you need is approved i140 and wait for 6 months after i485 filling. Green card is not that different after that point. You just wait for some time but you’re not connected to your firm and you can come and leave from us as much as you can.

Yes it is much faster , people just got used to blaming Trump for all the miseries in life

All politicians are bad. It’s a matter of choosing between bad vs worse. However, over here if you are well read, you know what I am talking about. Not saying support anyone, but don’t bias your opinion because of your personal interests. You got your GC because you stood the test of times, take that credit and not give it to someone who doesn’t deserve it!

You want to be careful about just one year: I would stay longer, and ensure that your job duties and management fit the definitions before you go.

Have them file an L-1A for you to return (if you have time left)

Hello, did you execute this plan?

I applied for a job at Visa and was contacted the same day. A few days later I had a 30-minute screening interview with the hiring manager. I knew I was very early in the process since the job had only been posted for a few days. It's been 3 weeks and I haven't heard back, even after reaching out to the recruiter. Have I been ghosted or is there still hope? Does anyone at Visa have insights? Looks like there are a ton of jobs posted so maybe they are just backed up?
