Can you at least hint us the region you are from? Do you think it'll hurt you in your visa/emigration process?

When you say 'nationality gives zero advantage' I think you're from somewhere that is regarded as 'worrisome' by some prejudice-filled cultures, like you're from the middle east.

India. As far as I know, my passport doesn't give me any advantage

A lot of Indians have opted to move to Canada. I'm an Indian (in India) in my late 30s and know half a dozen people who have migrated to Canada. Citizenship is relatively easy to get as well.

I'd say quite the opposite.

Lots of good tech workers coming from India, and if you already landed an US job, I'd say your chances of landing it anywhere else are pretty good.

As other people stated, having a american worker visa stamped on your passport is gonna help you a lot along the way.
