Hi Guys, Here's my situation: Had a H1B visa with my current employer, which was cleared after long wait of the administrative processing in hyderabad consulate in india. Never travelled to US on that. Found a New employer in the US, they filed my H1B petition (cap exempt) and got it approved. Right now I am in Johannesburg South Africa on an assignment. Can I go to the US consulate here in joburg and get the stamp without any issues? Are there any specific documents that the Consulate here would need in regard to my current work status here in SA? Please advise.. Regards Diwakar

Here's my case H1B approved for Employer A in 2012 quota(last year). Got stuck in Administrative processing, finally cleared and Visa stamped on june 2012. Was valid only until Sept 30th 2012. Never travelled to US on H1B and Now my petition and Stamp have expired. Now Employer B wants to file a H1B for me using my previous one. His attorney says that they could file a fresh petition for me as a cap-exempt and get it approved. Could you please advise if this is possible? If so, what are the chances of its approval? Thanks Diwakar

Hello everyone! I have been a huge fan of the Murthy Forum for a while. Got a lot of help and motivation while my H1b was stuck in administrative processing for about an year. I have a query regarding my H1B tranasfer. I will explain my case to you and then look for an answer: My current employer had applied for my H1B in FY 2011-12 quota. My petition had got approved without any issues, but when I went for stamping in India in August of 2011, the VO put my case on administrative processing. The administrative processing finally ended in June of 2012 and I got my visa stamped. It was only valid until 30th sept 2012. Now my new employers wants to file my H1B under the cap-exempt category. Is that a possibility? I have never been in the US on a H1 status before and my petition expired on 30th sept 2012. Please advise..

No updates at all, I send the same mail to the VFS every week and get the same standard response. Have left all hopes now -

After repeated queries to the VFS about my case since my document submission on 13th of Jan, this afternoon VFS responded asking to submit the same documents again. Dont know what's going on. Why would they ask for the same documents? this doesnt make any sense to me. It simply seems a way to drag my case longer. Really pathetic -
After repeated queries to the VFS about the status of my case, this afternoon VFS responded that I need to submit the documents again to them. The same ones I submitted on 13th of Jan. This is just ridiculous. They are intentionally doing this just to drag the case longer.
