Such a filing would have no impact on your current H-1B status or your ability to extend this status. Regarding an EB1A, the standard applied is extremely high and very difficult but we as well as other attorneys file them for IT professionals. It's just going to depend on how strong your background is. I'm not familiar with Julian Shapiro.
I've some weird type of a migraine which sometimes I'm not able to read or speak properly in English or Spanish (Always one of these combinations, fortunately). It's like I forgot how the words are "divided by syllables" and I'm not able to read or speak properly. Fortunately, it's for a few minutes and I got a migraine just one or two times a year.
I went to the doctor and he said it's not dangerous and there is nothing to do. Some people have migraines every week, even in the worst cases with vision loss so my problem is nothing compared to that.
I have migraines every once in a long while where I lose the ability to read. I can sound out words and recognize them but can't grok the meanings of the simplest sentences. Every thing else is fine. I can speak and reason perfectly. Just not read. It is the weirdest thing I've ever experienced. I definitely have more compassion for illiterate people making their way in life.
That sounds really frustrating. Do you have to warn friends and co-workers in advance? Or is it short-lived enough that you can just go hide until it passes?
Yes, I did it. Actually, I have a sleep mask in my job. It's useful to reduce a headache when everything is normal again. I discovered it a few years ago after 20 years having this migraine but the read/speak thing started about 8 years ago (at least).
I'd like to know your opinion about acquiring an EB-1 visa being an IT worker. How difficult do you think it is ?.
I'd like to try to do what Julian Shapiro did: https://www.tefter.io/bookmarks/48931/readable.
Also, I'm in H1B-1. Could it be dangerous for me to try this?
