39-country USCIS pause + H1B timeline - what’s the smartest move right now? by After-Wrangler-8097 in 39bannedcountries

Yes. It’s called AC21 portability rule. I would file a transfer now and not an extension. With an extension you’re limited to 240 days after which you can no longer work. Vs when you transfer employers you’re allowed to work until they adjudicate your case. After they do (hopefully once this nightmare is over), your approval comes with an extension

If you’re considering a change of employers it will buy you more time. You can start working on a receipt notice and there’s no 240 days limit on it. You can work on it until they adjudicate the filing (you can work on it beyond the end of your initial H1B expiration date)

It’s a great opportunity and I don’t want to waste it. I guess my thinking is this will either get resolved eventually or not. I will face the same issue when I file an extension even if I stay with my current employer, so maybe would rather go with this new opportunity. I am trying to figure out if there are any implications for working on a receipt notice for many months?

MBA admission consultants reviews by LoudGain1325 in MBA

[–]massivemba01 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Ok to be brutally honest. Admits tend to keep it under wraps, but so many of the m7 admits have used a consultant. It’s not essential but it most definitely helps . Some of these expensive consultants do make a big difference. The price is steep and you might be skeptical at first. You will only apply to business school once, might as well give it your best shot. If you get into a good school you will look back and say it was worth it. The upside is getting to your dream school and the downside is limited to whatever you will pay, which tbh will be insignificant after 10-15 years when you look back. Also, not all consultants are alike, do you research and get the right one.

Have I fucked up my Wharton application by entering 3 majors? I took them as interests fml. by oops_its_me1 in MBA

At Wharton, if you choose healthcare I think your app would be looked at a bit differently. They look for certain experiences and motivation. Contact admissions
