Question regarding H4+EAD. My employer's lawyer has helped us file my spouse's H4 application. Though I wasn't sure who is expected to pay the lawyer's fee? The lawyer sent me an invoice of ~$3k and wanted to check before I paid. I know I cannot pay the fees for H1B. But wasn't sure about H4.

I need to push my starting date by 1-2 weeks due to my h1b transfer not coming through on time. I have notified the recruiter about this concern and they said it’s easy to change push the start date in system.

Do I need to reach out to my hiring manager/team separately to communicate this delay, or will Google HR/recruiter handle it?

Hello All,

I hope everyone is doing well.

Is anyone here, who switched company from India to Germany?
Do they consider only German speaking candidates or English speaking is ok for them?
Also, anyone have experience with EU Blue card.
Can we directly apply for EU blue card from India if there is a job offer? Anyone got visa sponsorship directly from German employer?

I have seen most of companies need German speaking candidates.

Hi folks,
Quite new to this. I’ll be moving to Dubai in a month and I got to know that my education documents need to be attested before the company can apply for visa. I’ve been trying to get hold of this as information is not consistent. Do I need to have MOFA Attestation in addition to the UAE Embassy Attestation from home country or will that be managed by the company in UAE itself?
