I am a software engineer currently working in the EU. I am 31 years of age. I wanna move to the US and my main reason is how "accepting" americans are of other nationalities.
I have the following options.
-
H1b: This is the most obvious way to move there. However the h1b visa is based on a lottery which means its gonna be hard to get this one.
-
student - Opt: Another option is trying to get an MBA scholarship to a 1 year degree. I will use this as a stepping stone to get a job as a software engineer or a manager. I think I will probably not be able to work on this visa. So I have to live on my savings.
-
O-1: I am probably not eligible for this one but I ahve a 2 year Engineering doctorate degree. Its a doctorate without research and is considered at the same level as a Phd where I live.
-
L1 visa: This is transfer through another company but it means I have to work in another country for some years and in the end I may or may not be able to get a transfer to the US. I dont wanna take this route cause I dont wanna live in another country for a couple of years.
