In my case, I worked closely with an immigration attorney to navigate the extension process, ensuring all documents were in place. For job searching, networking on platforms like LinkedIn and attending professional events really helped.

From my experience, applying for a visa extension required accurate documentation and proof of continued employment. Finding a new job was trickier, as I had to ensure the new employer was ready to sponsor my visa.

I discovered that not all work visas allow for job transfers, so I first confirmed my visa type's flexibility. For the extension, I submitted proof of employment, financial stability, and my employer’s sponsorship. The process took some time, but preparation was key.
