Unless you plan to the leave the country before 2022, stamping is not required.

Check the new i94 expiry date on your approval

But IF you want to leave the country then you need to get it stamped before entering.

Which month your new Visa is expiring in 2022? Do we get an extension of exact 36 months or less? Also if we file extension 1 year in advance so the another 3 years of extension starts when ? Immediately or at the end of present Visa validity date?

Hi Fishes,

My last working date with TCS is on 4th March 2022 and now they are offering me 80% hike and Canada onsite opportunity and telling that will initiate visa as soon as I take resignation back and also ready to provide written confirmation. On the other hand I have an offer from IBM of 120% hike fixed and performance bonus would be there which I am not considering now.

Which one would be better? please suggest based on your knowledge and experience.

Need advice. Have some credit card debt that I’ve been working to pay off. Have made progress but want to lower it quickly. We have dual income, with a house (~$300k in equity), 1 kid and 1 on the way. I’ve looked into debt consolidation via HELOC but also have ~$80k in vested equity in my company that I haven’t touched. Get equity refreshes every year. Would it be smarter to cash out $15k-$20k of that to pay debt vs. a HELOC at ~5% given that will still require mthly payments
