What is a good place to find something like this ?

Hey Peter,

Me and my partner recently (1 month ago) got our green cards via my employer. My partner had previously started green card process through their work as well which is currently in PERM phase.

Is there any value in continuing my partner's green card process through their work? Is it at all common that EB green cards are rescinded? I have no reason to suspect this, I am just being extra careful.

I'd highly recommend reading Atomic Habits. One of the key concepts in the book regarding changing habits is developing or changing how you identify yourself. From your post, it appears you like starting things. More details from authors blog here:

For me, I started diligently tracking what new interests I develop. Before I picked up a new topic of research or area of interest, I would put it in a note and evaluate if this would take me closer or further from my overall goal. I stopped spending too much time on a new interest if it did not align with my overall goal. "If you can't measure it, you can't improve it." It is really important to be self-aware of this trend, and you have shown that you want to improve.

Good luck!

Just to add. $7,500 in AWS credits is for the Super Pro plan ( $199 / month paid for year)

$5,000 in AWS credits is for the Pro plan ( $59 / month paid for year)

$0 in AWS credits is for the Basic plan ( $0 / month)

That’s a very limited view of the world and leans more towards isolationism as opposed to internationalism. Isn’t it true that the US economy and consumers have benefited greatly from: 1. cheaper Chinese manufacturing at the expense of China polluting its rivers? 2. capital pouring in from all over the world in US financial markets (sovereign wealth funds, pension funds etc)? 3. migrants and their children coming to America and starting businesses?

The global economy is forever changing. At one time, India’s GDP as a fraction of the global GDP was at 24+%. United States, and the whole world, has benefited tremendously when smart and motivated people devoted their lives in creating businesses, advancing science and technology. The key in strengthening this status quo lies in recognizing, accepting and nourishing this talent. The price paid in return, handful of malice enterprises gaming the visa, is fraction of the overall net gain.
