That post 4/30 bliss

Deloitte experienced hires, who all received written offers and in process of visa/ onboarding, have you heard back anything about hiring freeze? Or recruiter asked you to delay joining date?
My visa got submitted couple of days back and waiting for decision. When I reached out to recruiter to give her an update and mentioned once there’s decision will discuss on the start date before putting my 2 weeks, she mentioned “Yes, we should talk before you put notice” - Am I overthinking?

I would be honest. Those things are outside your control so it's acceptable
Be honest. When I relocated cross-country my former employer gave me a 90 day rolloff (need to transition clients, wrap up projects and deals). I simply told them that I was looking to leave my current employer because of the 90 day timeframe.
Also having been part of a RIF (reduction in force), when I was looking after layoffs, I simply said I was laid off. Just factual. It's fine, it was one of the biggest reasons in 2007-2009 for job seekers.
