I’ve switched jobs before I believe to a different SOC code as well. I had to go through a RLMT and then apply for a visa change. Took ~1.5 months after accepting the offer (and only then I got give my notice). So all in all you’d be looking at a 3-4 months process. Employer lawyers normally take care of everything

thank you so much!

I changed companies and field of work. My new employer managed the process, was in the U.K. for the majority of the time (outside of little trips here and there).

Took me a little less than 3 months after offer to get CoS changed and the visa approved.

You can change. If your new job is the same SOC code and you get the same visa type it’s pretty easy and I’ve heard could be done in a few weeks. If you change SOC or visa type it’s more complicated.

thank you

Make sure you have your absence letter from all employers before you switch or you will have issues during ILR.

Just lost my 2nd H1b lottery. Have 1 year left on visa and 1 lottery left. Do any firms out there sponsor for Greencard before you have an H1b? Assuming it’d be very hard for me to get someone to sponsor me for H1b with only one year OPT left given the lottery, but maybe GC would be possible since it’s higher likelihood of approval?

Hi Everyone,

Need some inputs before making an important decision.
I have offer from Cognizant and they are promising that next quarter they will initiate my Canada visa. They are giving assurance when I spoke to them over call. Also, my current employer Accenture is also saying the same to retain me. Can I believe Cognizant? Also, Canada onsite is best in which company - Accenture or Cognizant. Please suggest based on your experience.

Thanks in advance!
