RFE on my H1 extension asked for how I split my time between client site and home office. I do Mon-Thurs travel as most consultants. Should I be more concerned as this sounds like a red flag to USCIS?

4 days a week at client should be fine with 1 day at home office. That’s the guidance we received - will be filing for h1 extension in a few months, will find out

Being with Deloitte and GGS itself is a red flag. Rest are all little things.

Well M1 what other options do I have? Transfer is no better even the law firms are better on the other side.

I would switch to other big4. Or even better to Industry.

Transfer is worse M1 no matter what law firms you have.
