Best time to switch jobs in GC process
Currently waiting to transfer to H1B this October (got selected FY22 thank god). Want to start GC process immediately in Oct, company already okay-ed it.
Now the question is this…
When is the best time to switch jobs?
I want to enter FAANG, for better TC (so I can save more and FIRE faster, get out of the grinding rat race) and also better work-life balance.
With the different steps for GC, is it best to
1. just transfer after on H1B and start GC in new company or
2. can I still change jobs and transfer GC filing progress to new company after I140 filed, etc. (company most likely to abandon filing if I leave halfway) or
3. stay in current company until after GC fully received then move?
Non-Indian/China national so should not have backlog wait, but not quite sure either.
Thanks for any help/advice.
TC: 135k
