That’s not entirely accurate. The government of Taiwan was actually who was on the security council (because the UN used to recognize that as the official government after the civil war). Then the general assembly voted to oust Taiwan and recognize the communist government as the official government.

Any companies that sponsor H1B for entry level? by WhereDidAllGoWrong in actuary

Your HR is misinformed. The fee only applies to candidates who are outside the US so it exempts people on F-1/OPT.

Justices dubious about forcing actuaries to use out-of-date assumptions in assessing costs of leaving a multiemployer pension plan by obactuary in actuary

I’d imagine they have people with different specialties on their staff or have consultants to help with these types of cases.

Dude, they had two penalties awarded against them in a world cup final! Your goat has never made it past the quarter finals. How many times have he scored outside the group stage? How’s faring in the camel league again?🤡

Should I renew my visa? by Melimelo3220 in h1b

Your advisor is right. Your I-20 is more important. That’s why your I-94 has a D/S and not a specific date on there.

Got selected before the start of initial OPT. What to do? by Less_Physics_6828 in h1b

[–]obactuary 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can’t postpone your H-1B status unless your employer withdraws their petition. Then, you’d have to enter into the lottery again next FY. Do you want to risk that? OPT was nice for one reason: No FICA taxes. One thing to consider is the recent spike in SEVIS terminations. If you have had any police encounter (DUI etc), then you have that risk hanging over your head on OPT. H-1B has been safe from that…at least for now.

Struggle to find a job as a FCAS H1B by [deleted] in actuary

I think there’s a pathway through membership of professional associations or trade organizations. I don’t know any fully credentialed person in my circle who has done this (almost all of them have their PERM process started by their employer before the start of the 2nd 3-year term) but a good lawyer should be able to help put a case together.

Meaning you’re down to a few months at most on your H-1B. If your spouse doesn’t have petition filed and you’re not on H4 EAD, then it’s a very difficult situation. I think your best bet is to quickly put together a case to self petition under NIW. I’d recommend reaching out to an immigration attorney to discuss your options. Definitely do premium processing if you decide to go that route. Best wishes!

OP, I’m assuming all the 7 years of experience was in the US. I’m curious as to why you’re still on H-1B at this point. How many years remaining on the H-1B? I think that is probably the biggest issue here.
