One of my colleague on H1b joined Deloitte an year back. When he initiated his GC, there was law firm change happening in Deloitte and his request was placed on hold. After constantly following up, for 5-6 months new law firm informed that he only has an year left before max out and refused to file PERM. He reached out to Talent too but with no result.His visa is expiring in next 4 months and recently Talent informed that he cannot take transfer to India due to annual freeze. Any options?

Did PwC start their layoffs? Heard Deloitte started it this month.

Barring an application for PR to Canada/Australia he really has no other option but to go back to India because no employer will touch someone with just 4 months remaining on h1b. At least no 100% clean option. He could choose to go to a day one cpt college but am not sure whether Deloitte or other big employers deal in that. Maybe some bodyshop but in today's times it's really risky to be on the payrolls of shady bodyshops.

Thank you. But shouldn’t a firm like Deloitte atleast give him an option or transfer to India? They aren’t doing that either.

1 year was good enough to file PERM. not sure why the law firm would not do that...i know a lot of ppl who initiated GC with around 13 months remaining only..his case should have been prioritized above others..

Immigration question.
Firm has applied for my GC but i dont have an approved i140 yet. My GC application and my home office location is in state X. And i’m planning to move to a state Y which is under 50 miles from my old home location. So my question is, if I change the states but the new location is under 50 miles will that be a problem for my green card application? I am planning to email the immigration lawyers but wanted to see if anybody has done something similar and share experiences
