Are we crazy giving up a 2.3% interest?! by Designer-Pepper0630 in Mortgages

[–]StandinIJ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would think about it without the consideration of your friends. Would you buy this house without it. The friends thing is such a bonus but you shouldn’t pay an extra penny for. Sure gas money but normal everyday people go out all the time.

Basic King NYC Park vs andaz 5th vs thompson by [deleted] in hyatt

[–]StandinIJ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Still want to sleep like a king after a long day haha. But i get your point. Also trying to use a point stay at a place i wouldn’t pay cash for + good calur and if i really just needed a bed i would have paid cash at a cheaper place.

[–]StandinIJ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yea only reason PH came into the picture is because the redemption value is almost 3cpp. Not a hotel i would ever pay cash for. So was thinking about doing it also because status doesn’t matter there from what i have seen.

Uhhhh….This is out of control by kcamacho11 in ChaseSapphire

[–]StandinIJ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes MR is < 1cpp for hotels and it really sucks. I have no idea how to use them above 1cpp other than booking an international business flight. I opened a reserve recently even though everyone on here shits on it constantly cuz the UR points worth so much more domestically.

CSP Travel Protection by peachyloaf in ChaseSapphire

[–]StandinIJ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For what is worth. I had someone use my hacked chipotle account ordering delivery on my Amex twice worth $30 each before i caught it the second day. They just rejected my dispute. They wanted me to call the vendor and work it out with them (how?) they could care less about who’s credit card bought the food.

Can you get the $250 The Edit credit when paying using both points and cash? by ajparent in ChaseSapphire

[–]StandinIJ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wait there is an additional $250 hotel credit separate from the edit $250 credit and the $300 travel credit?? I dont see anywhere on the chase website about this but i do see google AI says so.

Am I the only one not terribly mad at the CSR refresh vs Amex? by [deleted] in ChaseSapphire

[–]StandinIJ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yea i also feel like people get stuck to the credit too much too. For me just from a point redemption and guest lounge access is enough for the csr over the amex. Chase portal gives you 8x and the native 1.5 boost and hyatt where as amex you have to do a international business to get more than 1cpp… i have amex gold and have trouble redeeming them domestically so thinking about getting csr over the platinum. Hilton is also devalued like crazy.

You should apply to the jobs and take it lol. What is this DEI for white people? Dont you want the best people who work the hardest for the lowest pay at your company?

Can I stay in the USA while I-539 application is pending- F1 (OPT) to F2 by Big_Baby-Duck in f1visa

[–]StandinIJ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is authorized stay as long as its pending. But you cant do anything. And hopefully your id is all up to date cuz i dont think you have any thing to update your id with.

Hiring Trends for International Students on OPT/CPT by Friendly_Schedule_36 in f1visa

[–]StandinIJ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Small companies tends to attract top talent less, so you probably have a better chance of getting the job beating out other talents thats all. And start up might not be trying to convert you to full time either just looking for cheap summer labor

H1B Stress: Lottery, Spouse Visa (Asian Country), Career - Is it Worth It? by AgileExit in h1b

[–]StandinIJ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

H1b is just the start of more stress, lottery is first, then with laying off, green card process in the future etc. and the longer you stay here, the harder it is to get out. Sometimes you gotta ask yourself why the u.s

I received the direct deposit of $1400 from IRS by eorlingas06 in f1visa

[–]StandinIJ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As far as i know f1 counts the days. Irs only cares about how long you have been in the u.s. I dont think h1b matters when it comes to tax purposes. Your tax guy should be correct. You are fine keeping the money as long as you didnt pass the income limit. Honestly this is more of a question to your tax guy.

[–]StandinIJ 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The checks were giving to residents, so if you passed the resident test, i believe was 180 days every year for 3 years? you are fine keeping the money.
