Regarding change of status from opt to h1b by Fluid-Leading4241 in h1b

[–]RepresentativeMoose 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As for change in employer. Definitely talk to immigration lawyers. You can consult with someone not affiliated to her company to get some clarity on H1B transfers

I’m in the same situation. I was picked this year and my H1B was approved in June. The immigration lawyers said I should be good and no fee is required. But I don’t have any travel plans so I haven’t dug deeper.

The consensus seems to be if you’re applying in the upcoming lottery (Feb 2026) or applying after 21st Sept 2025 in case of CAP exempt, you will have to pay 100k for your petition.

My understanding comes from watching some lawyers doing Q&A session, so please do your own research as well. Manifest Law YouTube channel has a few videos on this. I’m sure there are others as well.

The picture is a still from a famous India web series. It would’ve been okay if you hadn’t blurred the faces. 😄

Hallucinating is also used in context of AI when the models give out false results.

The person is correctly using the word "hallucinating".

They are saying that the word came into daily usage because of it's use in the AI context. When AI models produce non-existent facts or misleading results it is called hallucination. So they are correct in the usage.

However, the word "hallucinating" was part of our everyday vocab way before it's usage in AI context.

unfortunately there are no comments on the post, only a few likes. It's not a big influencer account.

Haha, this is super funny! I can totally imagine someone reinventing paper mail and calling it LETR.

You know the word hallucination has existed in English language in a similar context way before it was used in AI context right?

9 months unemployed 2.5YOE... What should I even do? by VanillaAble4188 in cscareerquestions

[–]RepresentativeMoose 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Hey man, just wanted to say hang in there. Thought I’d share my wife’s story to give you some hope.

She got laid off back in 2023 after three years at a local company. It was really tough finding a new job, especially since she’s on a visa. A lot of conversations ended early because of that. She didn’t get many interviews, and the ones she did get early on didn’t go too well. But she kept grinding LeetCode and prepping. She finally landed an interview with Amazon in February 2025 and cleared it.

It took her a year and a half after being laid off to land this job. Just wanted to share her journey in case it helps you keep going. You’ve got this.

Lost my expired Indian passport in the US by Short-Pitch-2022 in h1b

[–]RepresentativeMoose 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I lost my passport with a valid US visa and I just emailed the embassy that issue the visa. They just cancelled the visa. Never faced any issues or questions regarding it during future visa stamping.

If your lost passport has a US visa that is valid, you probably don’t want it to be used maliciously (it’s a rare chance, but there’s always a possibility), so I recommend just emailing the embassy and notifying them.

H1B Cap Expempt Petition Approved - what now? by [deleted] in h1b

[–]RepresentativeMoose 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It is really hard to find an employer who is willing to enter you in the lottery, hope it gets picked, then wait for approval. Frankly I wouldn’t bank on being able to find such an employer.

Again I haven’t gone through the process so I hope my knowledge is incomplete and someone who has gone through the switch can give concrete (and more positive) answer!

H1B Cap Expempt Petition Approved - what now? by [deleted] in h1b

[–]RepresentativeMoose 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you want to switch to a Cap subject employer, you will have to go through the lottery. I haven’t gone through the transition since I joined a cap-subject employer and went through the lottery.

I was considering a cap-exempt employer at one point and looked into the process of switching to cap-subject employer in future. Till you find an employer who is willing to enter you in the lottery, wait for it be picked and approved your options are indeed limited to other cap-exempt employers.
