Desperately want to get out of Cerner got a new job offer but they cannot do H1 premium processing and they are not allowing me to work with H1 receipt. Any suggestions on what to do ? Cannot wait for another 6 months before USCIS accepts premium applications. Tired of working for Cerner unable to focus on work anymore here.
Find another company willing to start on h1 receipt and join them
Go back to your country of origin? Wink...
If that's your only option, accept offer and ask them to file H1 transfer. Since PP is stopped for now, regular transfers usually gets processed much faster, anywhere between 3-4 months vs usual 6-8 months. Meanwhile you can stay with your current employer and keep looking for better offers if you wish.
Do you know this for certain ? Any transfers in the real world that actually just took 3-4 months after PP got suspended ?
I cannot guarantee anything, but it's the pattern. Premium processing though faster is known to clog the system pushing the processing times for regular petitions. In it's absence, regular petitions will be processed in the order they were filed. Basically no one would jump in the queue for a while.
Wow, which company is that ? I would want to work for such a company who understands risks involved
Didn't they know about PP being canceled while speaking with you or giving you an offer? I'm an ex cerner myself but moved out of Pandora a little while ago. Feel free to DM me
They don’t know but they are okay waiting till I get my H1 approved.
Congrats and I would stick with current employer until you get “Approved”, the prospective employer if wants you, would wait
Congrats:).Which team do you for work? And which company you got offer ?
You can join on receipt. There is a risk of doing so. Talk to the company to see what they can do to in case the transfer fails to go through (send to a foreign office etc). Take your decision based on that.
