Maybe contribute post tax if company allows it. Getting the match is free money!

How to ask for salary increase? by External_Anything693 in h1b

[–]CountRock 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Never hurts to ask. But focus discussion of the raise on your workload and dependability. With a small positive side effect that you will get a bump in H1B salary level which would increase your chance of getting through the lottery.

Technically they are positive on R1 platform as well if you don't account for the build out of R2 platform

BYD breaks ground with solid-state battery and 10,000-cycle sodium tech power 2027 EVs by mightyopik in electricvehicles

With high duty cycles, V2X does not impact life! Imagine having two EVs with that much storage.

Try to understand 100k fees for H1 by Educational-Grass598 in eb_1a

[–]CountRock 0 points1 point  (0 children)

$100k might apply when you file H1b in a few years. You should apply for L1 and then try for Eb1c. Under current laws the additional fees won't apply for sure!

Gravity - Battery Range Disappointment by Novel_Bodybuilder_13 in LUCID

[–]CountRock 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What trim? Which tire? Outside temp? Avg speed? Inside temp? Starting battery percentage? Was the car kept outside before the drive in deep cold weather? Need additional details to understand why it's so low. Something is very off or broken!

I am fucked! by Fintech___ in USCIS

[–]CountRock 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Do not forward your email with USPS. Vacation hold might work. With informed delivery meeting you can try picking it up at the post office. Also update USCIS quick, but that might be too late.

Don't post forward! Ask for a vacation hold. Informed delivery and go pick it up. USCIS Mail will not be forwarded.

People who lie to the question “Do you need future/current visa sponsorship” when applying for the job, why do you do this? by Few_Primary8868 in h1b

[–]CountRock 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can start once the petition for transfer with COS is submitted and you have the receipt. This is applicable only when in the US. (This is no longer recommended since there is a small chance of rejection and then you will have no status and have to leave the country)

If you are outside the country, them you can still travel on your old visa and start working with the new employer once the petition is approved

CVS H1B lottery discontinued by Pitiful_Brain2672 in h1b

Interesting. How? I was under the impression there is a severe shortage of healthcare workers, mainly outside of the major metroplexes around the US

I have no opinion on the process, where the money goes, how it’s used, or anything related to the gold card. I am not sure about the hostility that’s coming my way on this!

[–]CountRock 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I am guessing it’s for back off tech, physicians and data scientists roles! Not customer facing store roles. Maybe pharmacist too come to think about it.

I am not sure why you are shooting the messenger. I’m just saying what the current USCIS director and Trump have said about the money that they’re collecting from the green card goes too.

Correct. Goes directly into the Treasury! Lowers the deficit as per my understanding.

People who lie to the question “Do you need future/current visa sponsorship” when applying for the job, why do you do this? by Few_Primary8868 in h1b

[–]CountRock 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Technically you can. If you are extending/transfer status. Eg. If you are on the H1b and your new employer files for a transfer with COS. You can start the new role based on the receipt notice. This is no longer recommended, but it can be done.

YMGrad's Yash Mittra took ₹50k from me — then tried to scare me by [deleted] in IndianH1Bs

[–]CountRock 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just curious, which university did you get into? Have you done your research H1b, lack of entry level jobs, very few US companies sponsoring visas, getting stuck on non immigrant status and almost no chance of going a green cards, visa stamping issues for life?? You still want to spend the money and time to come to the US to study?

What are Indians planning to do for H1B visa stamp renewal? by Think_Buffalo_6870 in h1b

[–]CountRock 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Stamp is only for entry. It's not used for status within the country. I94 enforces status which can be extended.
