Got an offer from Google recently. I was told that the H1B transfer would take up to 8 weeks. I have travel planned and fear that I might be cutting it close. I requested for Premium Processing but the recruiter wasn't sure if it was possible. Does Google file for transfers through premium processing? If yes, whom should I be talking to so that it goes through Premium Processing? Thanks in advance.
Ask your recruiter. You’re welcome in advance.
Are you transferring from Cisco ?
Huge layoffs at cisco so yeah I guess he is moving from cisco
Thanks, that’s helpful.
For me actual H1-B transfer under premium processing took 3 days. LCA application + other law firm process took 3 weeks or so.
Changed my role from data analyst to Ux researcher ? Will that be a problem for H1b change of employer
When I transferred to a start-up, the legal process only took them two weeks to complete.
Yes, Google is doing premium, using BAL legal team. But the 8 weeks includes prep which takes up to 6 weeks, and that’s why recruiter says so.
Prep work for filing takes 6 weeks? I was told 8 weeks was for normal processing and not premium.
Ya nobody tells u about prep work time. That's a crucial part which one should know
