H1B is tied to the employer though right? And it's a lottery system, so no guarantee?
The one time I went to the US I nearly had a panic attack, so I can't really imagine living there or dragging my family there, but then you look at the money and it sure looks worth dragging yourself through hell for.
- AlchemistCamp 6y agoI was talking about intra-company transfers, which are different from H1B. E.g., you get a job at Google and Google wants to transfer you to the US. That's a different visa, it's much less competitive and there's no lottery. > The one time I went to the US I nearly had a panic attack I guess if you have psychological issues that make travel difficult or feel like "dragging yourself through hell", as you put it, then maybe just stay at home. Another option is to work remote. You'll get paid less for being in an Asian time-zone, but you might still earn more than a local company would pay you. A third option, which is the one I'm currently pursuing (from east Asia), is taking your skills directly to the market as an entrepreneur.
