So when GC is temp suspended, what does that mean? It impacts people who have I140? New GC applicants? People about to get their card issued? Or none of the above...

Per my attorney, as long as you apply for your green card within the US (that is if you are already legally in the country) the application will continue to be processed as usual. The only thing is that everything is currently closed so you wouldn't be able to go in for your biometrics apt for example.

We won’t know for some time. EO is not published and we’re going to hear uscis response later. Honestly, it might also apply to a diversity green card lottery they usually do in may. The best case scenario is that they’ll freeze the process of actually getting a green card. Which to me doesn’t solve any problems. Those people have a job (most likely)

Mostly impacts row who get their GC's in the first year of h1b.. And some others who get GC's before coming to the US for work (Filipino nurses). Some family based impact as well

Hi Fishes,

I am working as SAP CX Developer with 4.8 YOE. I am so confused on choosing the best company. Need your advice. Please guide me among these two which organization is better to join Shell India Markets Ltd or SAP India pvt Ltd.
Shell SBC India - 21.6 CTC ( 18.6 Fixed + 3 Perfomance Pay/Var)
SAP India - 18 CTC ( 16.2 Fixed + OTB(Var) 1.8 ) + 3L JB .

I heard SAP will pay 100% or even more OTB/var but Shell Var is based on performance pay and Company Profits.
