What are your goals with overemployment? I started simply to pay off some debt, but now I'm really enjoying the extra income. I don't know where to go from here.

Pay off debt and retire early

Same. Started off for debt pay off, but I too like the extra income. I was able to take my family to Disney for Christmas, pay off $30k in debt, and still chugging! As long as I can mentally handle it, I plan to keep going.

Total tax liability is around 400000. Any other options do I have to save tax further (other than HRA, LTA)? Thanks in advance.

Currently have J1 as current employer used The work one for my BC. I looked at Equifax/ The work one to see if J2 uses that service, fortunately they don’t.
Question - if J2 runs a BC for J1 and Finds out I am still employed isn’t that a red flag?

like

I’ve been on the bench with J1 for about 3 months. I was worried that because I couldn’t find another project, I would get laid off so I found J2, which pays more, is very meeting heavy, but I really like. I’ve kept J1 because I’m still on the bench doing absolutely nothing and getting paid. Thinking about looking for a role on a project with J1 that’s not along my career path but will allow for me to do work with no calls so that I can manage both jobs. Does anyone have experience or advice?
