    In April 2021, I lost the notorious H-1B lottery and only had 60 days (insane) to figure something out – or get deported. I stumbled across a strategy to stay in the U.S. for 6+ months while I figured out my next move. Here's how it works 👇

    Yesterday, I had a call with a client about whether @RiverFinancial supported Washington or Hawaii. Since we currently do not support either of those states, I suggested buying #Bitcoin via @CashApp, despite the fact that they could be seen as a competitor in the space.

    While your 60 day grace period is counting down, you can file for a “Change of Status” to a B-1/B-2 visitor visa (a 180 day visa). Once this is filed, you are permitted to stay in the U.S. for the duration that your application is being processed...
