Quick H1B question. If I am working in company A and got an offer from company B and they applied for my H1B transfer and it went through. But I am no longer interested in joining company B, are there any repercussions or can I just tell company B that I am not interested and continue with company A ? (I assume that I can continue working on my existing H1B petition). Could someone clarify please?

Ask an attorney. But you don't get two H1B Visas. Thus the term transfer.

However, I believe if you never leave you are correct. I don't thing the transfers actually happens until you start the new job.

Huh ….🤔

You can keep your current job and your other company can’t do anything beyond withdrawing the petition. You can ask attorneys but this was my situation 7 years ago

Networking question here. A retired partner at the firm I used to work out reached out to me recently about attending an afternoon during the week (b4 4/30) with one of his long time clients. The partner and I have kept in touch since I joined my new firm and I feel like his invitation is a great networking opportunity since the client (who I have worked with before) is on a number of boards. Torn as how to request off as an S3. Could materialize to nothing but could be good for reconnecting.

My family mistreated me when I was younger, and now that I don’t live at home, they don’t call or bother to look for me, because frankly, I think they have a hard time admitting what happened - and will never apologize to me either. If I don’t call, or occasionally go see them during the holidays, we would never talk. Some of them are growing old (health-wise), and I’m scared this entire situation is just irreparable. Has anyone ever gone through anything similar? Any advice or thoughts?

One of the reasons I want to transition from industry to consulting (tier 1) is that I get frustrated when I have to collaborate with mediocre people.

I’m aware there are personal aspects I need to work on like my mindset, patience etc etc, but I just get so frustrated with blatant stupidity.
