My opt is expiring in july so this is my last chance in h1b lottery. Any backup suggestions if my h1b is not picked up? Has anyone tried enrolling in MS/PhD program to maintain the status? How good or bad it is?
It takes 6 months to get that PR in hand
Apply Canada π¨π¦ and buy yourself some time in the US by enrolling in a program
Enrolling in MS is not safe anymore these days. Check with PayPal if they can file h1 next year n move to India
Canada PR process is fast - like 4 months. But you wouldnβt get any IELTS date sooner in the US
Donβt PayPal have offices abroad? You should go to an international office and return on L1 if you do not get H1B again this and next year. Staying in the country by hook or crook will lead to problems later, stay clean on record and donβt be desperate. Do it the right way and youβll thank yourself in the long run
Also, doesnβt PayPal support people in such cases? A lot of companies send their folks abroad for a year these days who donβt get selected in lottery
So you lost the lottery 3 times? Just wondering, coz they sounds unusually high to lose the lottery
Assuming youβve two years of exp. give ielts and apply for Canada PR ASAP. This is just plan b.
I am already late for it :(
PR process wonβt take more than 3 months. Correct me if Iβm wrong
