elixir86 Posted March 30, 2015 Report Share Posted March 30, 2015 My Employer is filing Fresh H1B 2016. 1) Can employer file Fresh H1B with premium processing? 2) Will premium processing provide me quicker information of whether I am selected in lottery or not? 3) Is the premium processing fees returned by USCIS in case i don't get selected in lottery? Thanks! Link to comment

ashuneel Posted March 30, 2015 Report Share Posted March 30, 2015 I think OP means Cap subject petition. Link to comment
elixir86 Posted March 30, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 30, 2015 I am currently in L1 visa. I have never applied H1 before. Fresh H 2016 - means I am applying H for the 1st time. Link to comment
JoeF Posted March 31, 2015 Report Share Posted March 31, 2015 Premium processing is only for processing the actual H1 application faster. I t has absolutely zero meaning in the lottery. It does not help int he lottery, it does not speed anything up in the lottery. Link to comment

elixir86 Posted March 31, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 31, 2015 Yes. I had applied H 2015 and it got denied. I told below to avoid any cap exemption confusion. I know I am NOT cap exempt when I will apply tomorrow for H 2016 http://forum.murthy.com/index.php?/topic/80142-l1b-to-h1b-2015/ Is that you?? Link to comment
elixir86 Posted March 31, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 31, 2015 How soon will I come to know about the H lottery selection ideally under, 1) Regular H processing 2) Premium processing For Fresh H 2016, can I upgrade to premium later( i.e. if i get selected in lottery H 2016) Link to comment
ashuneel Posted April 1, 2015 Report Share Posted April 1, 2015 Apparently you got selected in lottery last year so you should know answers to these questions by now. Check USICIS website for updates. Link to comment
rahul412 Posted April 1, 2015 Report Share Posted April 1, 2015 Doesn't matter whether its regular or premium. It will take same time to get the h1 receipt. Yes you can upgrade to PP in future. Why are you asking these questions? You have already filed an H1 last year, so you should know everything. Link to comment
elixir86 Posted April 1, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 1, 2015 Last Year I came to know about lottery end of July '14. I had filed under regular quota. My New Employer told that- If I go for H premium, Employer will receive an electronic receipt sooner than the regular, stating whether i was selected in H Lottery or not. I am aware that H PREMIUM processing DOES NOT in any means INCREASE the CHANCE of getting SELECTED in H LOTTERY. Link to comment
mrk24 Posted December 4, 2015 Report Share Posted December 4, 2015 Can anybody tell me any local political or any others incidents causing H1B processing delays? Link to comment
