Nebraska is by far the best centre

NB is least overloaded

Interesting! Didn’t realize that!

Congrats OP. But USCIS furlough??? What?? Maybe I’m living under a rock but could you elaborate on this please

Yikes, any link you could share to an article?

But have you received snail mail?

Think I’ve seen other posts in by his bowl saying it takes 4-12 weeks. Don’t quote me on it though, I can’t remember the exact time they mentioned, but it seemed long to me when I read it

Hi Fishes,

My last working date with TCS is on 4th March 2022 and now they are offering me 80% hike and Canada onsite opportunity and telling that will initiate visa as soon as I take resignation back and also ready to provide written confirmation. On the other hand I have an offer from IBM of 120% hike fixed and performance bonus would be there which I am not considering now.

Which one would be better? please suggest based on your knowledge and experience.
