I am in my late 40s and after having traveled
around earlier in my life, we have been in the US for the past 8 years . We have aged parents and other at risk family members back in india . The pandemic has made us realize how much desire we have to be close to them, and we are likely to move back at the end of the school year. There are going to be decisions to be made , especially with the kids education, but I am confident the kids are resilient and will be supportive

I have a client (employer) that wishes to hire a worker that is currently in an H2B visa. Two questions: 1. Do I use the same 9142B to apply for the change of employer, and 2) because it is a change and extension (he is on year 2) it won’t count against the quota?

What to do if you haven’t heard from the embassy for 75 days. They have my passport. I came in for my H1B interview, VO told me it’s approved and I shall have my passport in 5 days. It’s in AP cont.

Any fellow L1ers here that have been advised that they will NOT enter the H1b lottery?

I moved to the Netherlands 3 months ago on a spouse visa. Was working with EY-P earlier. I have been applying to jobs and giving interviews but for some reason things are not working out. I get a different reason everytime (after going through the whole process). This has never happened earlier in life and now I don't know what else to do. I have worked as a strategy consultant (& a researcher). Should I change lines? Where else can I try?
I can't apply to boutique firms since Dutch is mandatory
