what is a decent pay?

How much do you think is decent for a person living alone in the US? I know it’ll vary according to the region and everyone will have a different idea to what is a decent amount… but i still wanna know…

thanks

can i add that this won't be a perm position.. maybe a 1 - 2 yrs thing.. full time..

one more thing

whats the deal if a canadian citizen wants to work in the US. like what required? that H1B whatever visa?

thanks

Well, with a Bachelors - $35-40 K

Masters - $40 -75 K

Phd - $75 +

Again, depends on the field in which u r in.

50 + k is decent by normal standards.

If u r a non-US citizen, the company maust sponsor you for an H-1 work permit visa. This is valid for 3 yrs and can be extended for another 3 yrs.

During this time, if yr company likes yr performance, they can sponsor u for a green card. But they will have to justify why they should hire you instead of an American. Usually helps if u have a Masters or Phd.

Take care.

for canadian citizens, you need T1 visa, not H1. This visa is ganted under the NAFTA provision. A lot easier to obtain than your average H1 and less complicated..
