Was anything worth knowing for EY Immigration’s Friday call?

Can I teach a class in a college and get paid on H1b without telling my sponsor (Deloitte)?

So I need to find a L1A visa appointment - can I book L1A appointment outside India? In India, the lead time for appointment is huge.

Looking to move to usa with visa sponsorship any opportunity's.

Can the H1-B extension be filed when I am not physically in the US ? I am currently impacted by the travel ban and not sure if I will be able to travel to the US before the current visa/petition expiry.

Has anyone had experience travelling to the US from the Schengen area, while on OPT. I understand that students on an F1 visa are allowed to re-enter, but It’s unclear what happens for students on OPT (not in college anymore)

After you accepted an offer form a Big 4, how long does it takes them to file for your H1b? Assuming registration is open

Currently on H1B and waiting for an offer from EY. Does EY kick start with green card process quickly in special cases. HR said normally it is 1 yr but he has to check with legal team. More inside..

I signed my offer last week. How long until immigration contacts you for an H1b transfer?

Can I get H1B visa stamp annotated with (future employer) while I serve my (current) employer’s notice period?
I have a job offer from Meta and awaiting my H1B transfer approval notice. I have never received an H1B visa stamp before. I want to work from India (& get H1 stamped with Meta based on offer letter+approval notice) during my notice period, followed by 2 weeks of unemployment, and start my new job at Meta once I return to the US.

What's the best consulting firms for H1B folks who have studied masters in STEM here? Got a cousin graduating this fall and he needs to know H1B/GC policies.

Tax question: my SM changed my hours with a location I never worked at, from 2020. When I asked for a change, he is hesitant since it’s a long process. Would it cause any issue on visa if I filed a tax to a state I never worked in?

Are Mastercard, AMEX, Visa - Product based companies??
Also, what would be the best choice for data engineers?

Hi Folks, My last visa was stamped in India while my wife’s h4 in canada.
My question is she eligible for dropbox in India?
I know pre pandemic it wasnt possible but has the situation changed lately ?
Much TIA!!

How transparent is your firm about your H1B application? Do you get your application receipt number? I’ve worked really hard to get this job and made a lot of life changing decisions and worried about losing all this just because my application isn’t picked in lottery🥺🙁.

Hi Fishes.I have a H1B petition and about to get visa stamped.Petition vid for another 1 year .I need to know can Visa be transferred after interview to new employer without cancelling the Visa by current employer?

Hello friends,
I wanted to share that I am in my first job as ui/ux expert and I am the only ux/ui person in the team. I am expected to take care of entire research and design of the product. It becomes very overwhelming as the product that I am working on is in a early phase and I am expected to think about ui as well as ux and also design entire app on my own.There is no user interview or user testing happening as my project manager thinks it can be done after product is launched. Please help!

Hello, I am a junior business administrator working in advisory operations. I have been with the company for 6 months, and was employed along with 2 other colleagues. I have picked the job up really fast and am even doing some “extra curricula’s” I really love my job. However I have recently found out I am being paid the same as an apprentice on my team, I usually do at 3 x the work he does whilst also doing my Cert CII. It has really disheartened me and I feel I should be earning more money

Hi all! I'm planning to pivot careers towards the medical devices industry. Specifically in industrial/manufacturing/quality engineering.

Does anyone know of great resources/certifications to share that will not only provide a better understanding but make me a stronger candidate?

As of now, I have a six sigma green belt certification and have had 2 internships (one in Manufacturing Engineering and Industrial engineering) prior to my current full-time role.

Thank you in advance!

Went to a club yesterday and we paid $20 pp for cover just to find out that it was empty and there wasn't really a clubbing vibe. Bought a round of beers and we were so bored that we decided to leave in a few minutes... I feel robbed but at the same time I guess there's not much I can do, or is it? Im not sure if a CC charge back even applies in this case. Anyone had the same experience?

I am currently on opt expiring jan 25th 2020. Is receipt notice of stem opt extension enough to continue in the job or is an approval notice essential ? USCIS takes a while to process hence the worry

Deloitte field my application for AOS, EAD, and I-131 concurrently in November. The online status for AOS changed to “case is ready to be scheduled for an interview” over 2 weeks ago. How much longer

Need advice. Currently at $142k base. 3 years and 1 month left before I max out of H1b. Just got my PWD issued through current employer though their immediate reaction is subtly letting me know they’re not in a hurry to start recruitment. Got an offer today for $160k base. Similar role, both are good teams, etc. Do I politely decline and see my GC process through or accept and get more money? Feel like current employer will drag their feet as long as they can for retention purposes.

Really over this job, but company just started my GC application. I hear it takes about 2 years. Is the GC worth the wait? Does the time go by fast? Lol I feel stuck here & just tired. Send help

My priority date is Dec 2012 in EB2. Is it worth waiting for US GC or apply and get Canadian PR in the next 6-12 months? Serious answers please.

At what point when we get our GC can we bring in parents in home country to the US? Is it only in conditions where we can prove they need our assistance? Is it possible to at least ask for extended visit time for them if not fully living here? Thank you.

When transferring H-1B, how do we know the case number besides receiving the physical copy of receipt notice from USCIS, which might be 2 weeks + since filing petition?

Can we do GLG type calls while on H1b? I get a lot of these requests but not sure if we are allowed to do this.

Is there a diff between starting GC process with FAANG or Big 4? Is the specialty occupation a concern in the GC process? Appreciate any insights!

Since we are all WFH, some of my fellow countrymen have headed home and work US hours. Anyone doing this? I know technically not supposed to but these are weird times.

EY law question - Checked the online portal and it seems like petition is ready to be sent to me but lawyers have stopped responding. Any idea what might be going on? (H1B1 Consular processing)

SO and I have finally saved $500k. Should we buy a house or a green card (Indian born on H1 in the US, I-140s approved)

Constantly thinking why I chose US to study and have worked here for several years. Visa is such an issue for long term career move. Might have choose Canada or Australia...

I had to leave the US before my lease ended due to visa reasons and subleased the apartment. I will be returning to the US on L1A shortly after the sublease ends (but before the term of the lease expires), could that jeopardize my return on L1A?

Other than citizenship, are there any other benefits of having a baby in the US vs in India? My wife and I may not be settling in the US, depending on what we decide over time. With that in mind, my wife is siding towards having the baby in India. When I checked online, I don’t really see any benefit except for the citizenship. Any inputs appreciated :)
