re at notice - its not that hard to manage. After working with same
company for 6 years , when the company folded in 2002 and we turned the
lights out I was faced with same 10 days.
On the flip side, having a place and a car make life cheaper than when
you first land. If you reenter on

Just a slight clarification, Patrick is correct about the visa's validity.
Your visa can actually expire while your right to work is renewed. This is
what happens if you renew your E3 in country.
Your work permit is extended for another 2 years which gives you a right to
stay and work. However if
My last experience with this (2005) was with a visa tied to a company
(L-1B), and when the company went under I effectively lost my visa. That
being said, I was told that because I was "white & spoke English" I
wouldn't be noticed, and I'd effectively have six months to find new work.
It was doubly
When I got my job for Vast.com, end-to-end it was a three month process.
The reason it took so long, as the CEO guiltily admitted to me in one of
our catchups later on, was because when you think you need to hire
someone you should wait three months until you do. Sound advice and
working for a
Overstaying a visa is an offence that tends to result in them not issuing a
visa again and excludes you from the vwp. It's playing with fire.

Correct me if I'm wrong but I thought the visa needs to be valid only when you
enter the country? So your I94 is more important?
In any case, unless you have to leave the country, the USCIS (visa office) will
never know if you lose your job until you leave the country and try to come
back in. S
This is all true. To expand, re California:

pay 2 weeks standard. It is a good signal for your other employees.
But I also know that a few firms pay no severance ever as a matter of policy.

I suspect that even if you can negotiate a longer notification period you
can still be walked and paid "in lieu of notice". The extra money will be
nice but I don't know whether the notice period will count as "being
employed" in immigration terms.

California is an "at will" state. I think you'd have a hard time
getting any employer there to accept a notice period at all. They all
reserve the right to walk you out as required.

No, but the notice period is. if you can wire in a four-week notification
period it gives you longer to look for work… assuming it'll be respected.
*That* was the intent of my question.

The ten days isn't about your employment agreement. Its a requirement
of the visa... E-3s are tied to an employer. If you stop being
employed by that company your visa becomes invalid.
I would be a little bit surprised if a new employer could get through
the paperwork process in ten days. There's
In short, I don't think you can. These risks can be managed, but I just
wanted to point out that the promised land does have its challenges. I know
more than a few folks who've had to head home before they were ready with
great life lessons learned the hard way. And remember too that this is a
boom

How effectively can you deal with that (extend the ten days) in your employment
agreement?
Or does such an agreement get torn up too easily?

After years of suggesting to the wife it would be nice to return to the bay
area, out of the blue the other day she turned and said - "i think we
should go to the bay area".. and she was serious.
so... it is time to do some planing (ie. budgets etc).
So for those in the bay area now -
