Congratulations OP!

Congrats! Happy for you!

Mine was approved last week too.

Congrats, OP! I had a (somewhat) similar thing happen for an amendment - filed end of March and got approved early May. I had a previous amendment filed in October of last year that didn’t get approved until April. Must be very low volumes right now with most visas on pause

Which processing centre?

Congrats OP. When did you get receipt notice?

Hi congrats! Do you mind sharing what form they used I-765 or I-539?

Congrats OP! That was very fast

It is happening
my partner got it very soon too

Anyone from Vermont center who got h1b extension approved? If so please post timeline.

No.

However, I still needed help planning/prioritizing my day,  listening and active note taking, and keeping myself accountable. So decided to replace meds with coffee. Also, the fact that most people on meds had to progressively increase their medication over time did not sit well with me. (cont'd)

Any advice for asking to work from home?
I started my job just over a month ago and the one day a week I work from home I absolutely love. I have an hour commute to the office all other days and I'd love to even just get one more day at home. My manager is not aware of my adhd and I have crippling fear and shame around it so I'd rather not tell him. The office environment I'm in is honestly any neuroduvergent's nightmare. I know it's probably wrong to not tell him but I don't want any judgement.

Looking for a job, preferably Finance.
I have a masters & bsc in Economics; another masters in Business Analytics; have appeared for 2 levels of CFA Exams; and gained extensive experience in Data Science in my current job; won the CFA Research Challenge 2020 Championship in San Diego too. And my H1B work visa got picked too.
I got alot to offer & would love to connect with like-minded professionals.

For those with company equity or unit incentive programs, is it common to forfeit vested equity upon voluntary departure? Explained as a “retention tool” but essentially held captive by a payout since the contract says equity doesn’t fully vest at 100% until the company is resold. If I quit at any time before a sale date, I lose all of the equity that has already vested. This was offered to a few employees in leadership but feels like not that great of a deal to me. Is this normal?
