So my husband is going through his i-130 process and we are at the noa2 stage. however from my personal experience in looking for job in america, i know how hard or long it can be to find a job. so i told him to start looking now that way he can start when he comes here. I am wondering if anyone had the similar experience and if yes maybe they can share here.
