As a developer from a run-of-the-mill Latin-Country (No special job agreements a la Mexico/Chile) what would be my best chance to get a visa-sponsored job? Work as a local in my country and bid my time for a L1 opportunity? Anything else without resorting to the H1B grind-mill?
Also, what about working for some months on USA and other months on Mexico? Does the visa allow this scenario or are there chances the custom agent get more inquisitive about these frequent trips?
what restrictions common tech worker visa types (H1B, L1B) place on employee location in the US? Specifically, do they allow remote work (office location in state A, visa worker working remotely in state B)?
I have a masters admit for Fall 2021 and am applying for an F1 visa. However there are very few interview slots being opened in India right now and the consulates are rejecting emergency appointments without any reason. Is there anything we can do to secure an interview?

This is a real problem right now and not just in India but in most countries around the world. You could ask a Congressional office in the area where the school is located to make an inquiry or you could even ask the school to make an inquiry. I've had clients report to me that their schools have done this. What would you be studying?
I’ve worked remotely for a small company for a number of years and am a core team member. I suspect I fit one of the definitions for an L1 visa except that the US company doesn’t have a presence in Canada other than my home office. Would this qualify? Or does there need to be a legitimate Canadian subsidiary to even be considered?
I suppose my last option would be H1-B but that seems like the least favourable.
I am from Mexico and am currently employed on a TN visa, if my company intends to start working remotely, is it valid to keep working under this visa if i won't be physically living on the USA (i would live in Mexico, but maybe travel to US some days per year to US) or should i switch to another schema (like working as a contractor)? Also, what about working for some months on USA and other months on Mexico? Does the…
I’ve heard that an option for Canadian workers pursuing US citizenship is to apply for a TN visa, then apply for consular processing from Canada while under TN visa status. Does this seem like a good option? I’ve worked remotely for a small company for a number of years and am a core team member. I suspect I fit one of the definitions for an L1 visa except that the US company doesn’t have a presence in Canada other t…
Taking a look at the IEPP webpage, I saw some vagueness that is common when looking at entrepreneurship visa programs in the US and elsewhere, for example:
"The start-up entity has received a significant investment of capital from certain qualified U.S. investors with established records of successful investments;"
In this context, what is "significant investment?" 100K? 1M? 10M?
In this context, what is a "qualified investor?" Any accredited investor? Do VCs apply to some government entity to become qualified investors in this program?
I am not personally affected by these definitions ... I am a US citizen ... but many friends of mine are foreign nationals in the US on various visas so I try to maintain a decent working knowledge of immigration options and vague language like this makes developing this understanding more difficult.
