My firm has offered me to take up a project in Canada for few months. I have option to say NO but thinking of spending 1 year so that I can become eligible for EB1. I am H1b. Is it worth pursuing...

Considering I have Home and life built up here ? Can they file Eb1 while on H1b?

Go for it

How do you become eligible for EB1? Is it your company policy?

Do it!

@C1 it’s international manager category

What’s your priority date?

Do it as long as you have back up of partner to hire you back here after a year and can do eb1. Also make sure with EY attorney that they don’t do L1 blanket when you return, you have to return on L1A then only you are eligible for eb1

@EY1: I am not from EY, is this UCICS condition or just EY internal condition? I am on H1b with 3 years left on it. I plan to enter back to US on H1b only. Can not they apply EB1 on H1b?

OP they cannot file for EB1 when on H1B; you need to be in US on L1A status

@M1: Does that mean I should enter back on L1A?

M1 - Not entirely ture. Eb1 requires acting in the capacity of manager outside of US atleast 1 yr. You can return in h1 and get your eb1 done.

H1B can still have EB1. Its called EB1C (Google it). Condition is to be an int’l Manager for a year.

Go for eb1

You can definitely do EB1 on H1B but the filing becomes pretty complicated. L1A would be the better option since you would have already cleared the international manager requirements.

Suggest you setup a call with immigration team and validate

OP you looking to take any SCs with you? 🙋🏽‍♂️

⚠️Toxicity Alert ⚠️

My previous manager would track us by hours daily, made a fuss everytime anything stretched and guilt us for that and the unplanned leave too unless it was COVID. Hinted him a lot of time, this is problematic but apparently he considered it "standard practice for agile".

Now 8/10 teammates have switched within < 1 year of project start (6-7 months with him) which tbh had good work in our opinion and even team was fun to work with even though none of us ever met in person.

Hi guys! I could use some help here, feeling a little discouraged. I started working for EY through a contractor and im hoping to move to EY to a different line that I could expand my current skillset. Although I don't hold a degree, I recently completed a certificate with Google in Project Management. I was hoping to move to something in Communications, EA or even Advisory but I haven't had any luck. and advice? Also looking into the EY Employee Referral scheme? or would that even be worth it?
