Questions about contracting

[venkatdabri]

Hello,
I came into the country 10 years ago and have had a full time position for the past 8 years in Silicon valley however my GC has not been done. I have been thinking about moving back to contracting the reason being that I don't want to worry about my GC process being reset because of a job loss. 10 years ago it was fairly easy to be a contractor. You found your own project and the company paid you 80% of what you made. Is this still the case? Also how easy is it to find contracts in the south bay area?

You can't really do that.

In order to legitimately get green card, employer should have a job for which they can't find Americans or Green Card Holders.

In your scenario, your such contracting employer has no legitimate job to hire you.
