You could move to another country, but you would have to give up your great job….or would you?
Working for U.S. tech company outside the U.S.
You are a talented tech professional in your home country. You work for a U.S./global company, but are unable to move to the U.S. because of H1B visa limitations.

My H-1B was due to expire in January 2023. The first part of my green card application was backlogged due to COVID. Applications that would normally take 4 months were taking almost 8-10 months. At that rate, my green card application wouldn’t be finished until after my visa expired.
It would have been much, much harder and likely taken a much longer time to get to Canada if I had to do it through getting a job offer from a Canadian employer out the gate. They would have to do the additional leg work to be able to hire me.
