What’s the Green Card policy at Morgan Stanley? Currently on H1B and considering an offer. The recruiter has been vague about it.

They apply for it the first year you join the company, and keep applying until you get it (or until it reaches the limit if there is any). I was lucky to get mine the first year. They also apply for Green Card near the expiration of your second H1B (H1B is given only twice to any individual, for 3 years each). But I guess in your case, they apply for H1B transfer which in general is a quicker process. Hope this helps.

Thanks for responding. I think you’re referring to the H1B lottery, I already have that part covered and will only need a transfer.

Wondering if they’ll apply for my GC as soon as joining or will they make me wait for years?

They will apply for an extension of your current H1B and max that out first before applying for a greencard.
