Technically speaking if your visa is stamped and if you must visit your home country , you are out of luck ?? This is insane for H1B visa holders!

OP: you’re speaking out of both sides of your mouth. First, your post talks about “Visa is stamped”, second, your comment talks about “Visa is not stamped”. What are you talking about, can you clearly articulate and we will attempt to put you at ease?

I have a stamped visa, valid until ‘27, and am in India currently. So what’s your question or concern?

D2 please let G1 Figure it out.

This is year 1. If this continues, there are worse possibilities on the horizon.

I meant if Visa is not stamped, this is like mental harassment! How on the earth someone can make major housing decisions, if H1b uncertainty is so high!

hmm they are known to endure until the end and so I fear, data points of the impact could come much later, by the time a lot of us would be out of our primes. On a side note, I do agree some fat needs to be cut, as clearly there were blatant abuses by incompetent folks.

Original post had typo ..I am talking about not having stamped visa

Well, based on *most* folks experiences, yes. Things are in flux, so it’s best to not step out. HOWEVER, I
Know of at least one individual who managed to get an emergency appointment based on a letter from HR. It’s, of course, highly YMMV, so definitely not recommended.

Hello everyone!
I recently found out that I was being paid less than everyone in the team (more than 25% gap to more expe teammates, around 15% less than new hires)
We all had the same responsibilities, I consider I even had a heavier workload (talking in past tense since I very recently made an internal move).
Things to consider:
On a work visa
Non-white
Non-male
What would you recommend doing?
Keeping it to myself?
Speaking up? How? With who?

-TIA

At what point do you begin to feel numb (if ever) when you’re done trial and prepping for another trial in a span of 3 months, while mains full caseload of other active litigation cases? Should I be worried that I’m going from engaged and stress to numb and slightly indifferent? Or is this what it feels like to power through? I can’t gauge it anymore?
