To all Deloitte fish: can we please upvote the PERM and immigration related questions in Dan Helfeich’s Q&A poll. Right now they are at the bottom and we could use this to get some answers

Hi All,

This is Prasanna Kumar from India. I hope you are doing well :)
Myself and my wife are working in Infosys. She has got a project in Canada. She has raised a dependent Visa for me also in Canada.
If we go there, she will have a work assignment. But I won't have any work assignments in Canada.
My Canada Visa is already in progress. I am looking out for opportunities for Windchill in Canada.
If you can be able to help me with this, It would be a great help for us
Thanks

Hi, did any of you receive H1B receipt notice after filing..please let us know asap.

If I have a valid H1B until May 2025, will the i131 being denied have any impact on me? I need to travel out of country and I know that’ll result in i131 being denied automatically. I have filed for 485 in July 2022 and hopeful that it’ll get approved before my H1B has to be renewed in May 2025. Is there any risk of travel king out of country multiple times on H1B before 485 approval?

Does anyone know an Immigration Lawyer who also does legal malpractice cases?! My piece of s**** green card lawyer messed up my L1A and I ran out of time with my L1A to sign for a new GC!

Hi all,
Does anyone have advice/ leads on what companies sponsor H1B? I just graduated with my MS in Data Science, have 3 years of UX/ PM experience, a BFA in Product Development, and a BA in Journalism. I have been looking since August and so far no offers/ companies ending the interview once they find out I need sponsorship down the line. I am wondering what I am doing wrong. What companies/ jobs should I apply to with my background?

Does anyone know someone from Korea who’s moved here professionally? Have a friend who is considering Aus vs US (v strong profile, but unsure about immigration policies and doesn’t know anyone who’s made the jump before)

Question on UK visa-
My partner will be traveling often to London, once a month for an year starting September. He is getting his visa through work (10 years, multiple entry, 6 months max stay, cost some $1000).

I have applied for standard tourist visa in the past and they are usually short term. It could be max 6 months, but they see your itinerary and allocate you few months around the itinerary

Is there a way to get 6 months multiple entry visa, if I were to join him once in a while.

How many days it would usually take to receive H1B approval notice in the mail? Have been contacting BAL since my case was approved on 06/17 and still they haven’t received it.

How does H1B visa transfer process work? How long can I work for my current employer after my visa transfer for the new employer is approved?

Hi all, my H1B got approved today and I am waiting on the actual physical notice. In parallel I have a L2 EAD extension request in process. My H1B is valid from oct 1 only. Can I withdraw my L2 tomorrow? Is it okie if I am out of status for nine days? I am worried that the L2 will get approved. If it does get approved, what do I do?

If you leave the US because of failed H1B attempt with a L1 visa, how hard is it to move companies under the latter? If you decide to leave your employer, what is the process like to keep the visa?

Can you travel out of the US while your H1B is pending approval?

Currently on STEM OPT.

Is it true Deloitte is not sponsoring H1B visas? I have a friend considering joining as an SC after MBA. However, they are concerned that Deloitte is not sponsoring. Are these fears correct? How does this work from a recruiting perspective? They would be hired as an off-cycle campus hire via PPMD referral, not within the standard pool of campus hires. Thanks!

Does Deloitte sponsor H1Bs? The website says they don’t sponsor, so slightly confused as I see people here posting about having offers and will be soon going though H1B process. For context I am not in the USA.

Does anyone know if things like jury duty or bereavement leave count against your utilization? I've heard it doesn't count the same way holidays and PTO do, but not sure how that is possible.

I got selected in LTI, the offered CTC is less than my current CTC, HR says they have budget constraints.

They were aware about my current CTC right from the first call.

I also shared the counter offer that I'm holding. (Offered CTC > Current CTC)
Switch won't make sense if I don't get the basic hike.

How can I convince them to revise my offer? YOE -3.2 yrs
