Stay in H1B Visa need some info

[rockssk]

Dear fellow members,

I'm one of the proud members of this prestigius group which helps people around the world ont heir visa related queries. I had confidence after reading users posts while preparing for my B& H visa interviews in the past years.

Now i have few questions related to my H1 visa and would appreciate if you guys can help me out with that.

* I work for an indian MNC in Chennai and have a H1B visa valid till 2014 Oct.

* I have a plan to travel to US in the mid of 2013 for my current client.

* After working for few months at onsite can i jump out for a new job from there? If i switch over to another company from there , will there be any legal issue for me with my current employer?

* My company will give me $60K/Annum , i had to stay in Jersey city , NJ , i will have my wife and 3 years old daughter with me on H4. what could be the savings i can make per month after paying state tax,house rent,family expenses etc? will there be any concession on tax if i stay with wife n kid.


Regards,
Suresh

That depends on what contracts you sign with your employer, if they require a certain notice period or non-compete clause, you will be bound by that.

Search for paycheck calculator online. Use 3 exemptions for both Federal and State in the calculator (you, your wife and child) and see approximately what you will get after taxes. I don't know what other costs will be in NJ, but I feel 60K will be a moderate salary and you may be able to save 500 to 700 per month if you live conservatively. I may be totally wrong about this though.
