Current condition 1. On h1 visa 2. GreenCard already filed couple of years back but it was filed as SDE. I moved to EM role later. Since SDE and SDM has high overlap, so lawyers decided not to file any update on GreenCard 3. Exploring to switch company in different state. Even in same company, changing state require refiling perm. So I have gut feeling that changing company across state may require perm updates also. I believe a lot of other people would have gone through same scenario. Can someone share the experience on the process ? Will there be any issue with H1 transfer ? #visa_transfer
No issue with H1 transfer. But location change requires a new PERM? Also Amazon is not doing PERM until 2025. Highly doubt it will recover. What’s your PD?
Change location require PERM update. I have not gone through the process personally but heard from a friend who tried to relocate. My PD - 2017 I know that companies are not doing new PERM filing. It make sense as so many people in market after major tech layoffs, it would be really hard to get PERM approved. But in last 2 years with major tech lay offs, I expect multiple people have faced this issue. So trying to see if anyone, having similar scenario, can share the experience
Your PD is 2017 so I assumed you’re Indian. Given the current waitlist for you guys I don’t think PERM is a big concern. Hard to image you don’t change company until you become current. So again H1 transfer shouldn’t be a problem expect Broadcom and potentially Meta?(see those rumors).
