My Coinbase offer got rescinded. But I hadn't initiated my H-1B transfer with Coinbase. In that case will accepting the severance cause any legal issues? TC: 250k Yoe: 3 #coinbase #rescind #h1b #legal
Contact an employment lawyer and hold coinbase accountable for getting a resolution
H1Bs … they don’t let you live in peace now eh !
Job search : Problem Lost Job : Problem Multiple Jobs : Problem Travel : Problem Severance : Problem Medicare : Problem Career Break : Problem Like FFS …. What’s wrong with this immigration system
This is the fun of it. And if you are undocumented, you just walk across the border and half of the politicians will stand by you.
This is a question for an immigration attorney, not an anonymous forum
As so many folks are going through the same, I wanted to share my findings as well as see if anyone has better info. It doesn't make sense to each of those affected folks to pay around $300 to a lawyer to find the same answer right
Attorney consultations are typically free. It’s a nice thought but this is too important to rely on anonymous people
Did you leave Amazon?
Just curious, what kind of severance are they offering?
It purely depends based on how close your joining date is. Could up a month or a few months of severance
Hi, did you find the answer? I contact Coinbase for the similar question they suggest me to find an independent attorney.
I had the exact same reply from CB lawyer
Guys let me know your findings here. I initiated H1B and approved. They rescinded the offer just before joining day. Am I good to take severance?
In my case, my h1b was approved but I’ll still stay in current my company. Coinbase’s lawyer said we could still take the severance package, but recommended consulting an independent attorney for whether it will impact the immigration status. I actually think it should be fine. We haven’t worked for both employers at the same time anyway.
Agreed. I feel like at the end of the day it’s a compensation from a potential employer . I don’t even work for a current employer and currently unemployed so technically they paid me to start but then rescinded the offer.
Will the severance come as 1099 form for taxes next year?
Anyone here contacted the lawyer?
