What happens if I switch to a new job 4 months after my i140 is approved ? Will I get approval for 3 years even though my initial H1b tenure of 6 years completes in year and a half ??

Ideally USCIS should give 3 years. But nowadays can’t say. It’s at their whim and fancy.

Yup typically it should be 3 years

Your employer can withdraw I140 for ay reasons within 6 months of approval and after 6 months only with a reason of fraud

Sorry, a visa question: Do you know if the H4 EAD process is confirmed to shut down? My lawyer at PwC said that it’s 100% confirmed by USCIS that it will be shut down soon.

I just went to each of the 'careers' pages.. Updated resume to match the requirements on each posting. Called out on resume that I need immigration sponsorship. Had a cover letter for each posting.
Before that I spent money on getting a professional resume from Monster. Highly recommended. Good luck all.

Hello guys

Hi Folks, I'm currently in search of a mentor. I'm a 28y/o MSc grad and starting a Junior Funding Consultant role (writing grant applications for startups) as I'm tired of holding out for an entry level role in ESG/Sustainability - I keep getting rejections despite completing a very wide ranging internship at a renewable energy company. Last year I received an offer at Deloitte Belgium but due to Brexit & VISA delays, we couldn't continue. Now I'm unsure of my career progression & need guidance.

My total experience is around 7+ years and am currently working in a MNC from the past 4 years. I was planning to make a switch to some other company but recently my manager has mentioned to me in person and as well as on my appraisal feedback (in writing) that I will be nominated for the H1B visa in the coming cycle. This was in July 2022. Should I be worried that it won't happen or should I start looking for the switch.?
