h1freak1 Posted December 23, 2011 Report Share Posted December 23, 2011 No news buddy. I am gonna have my employer contact USCIS to find out what's going on. Keep me posted if you hear anything from USCIS. I have got approval today. I got message around 3:00 PM. But USCIS website is showing something different. On December 16, 2011, this I129 PETITION FOR A NONIMMIGRANT WORKER was approved and we sent you an e-mail notice. Please follow any instructions on the notice. If you move before you receive the notice, call customer service at 1-800-375-5283. During this step the formal decision (approved/denied) is written and the decision notice is mailed and/or emailed to the applicant/petitioner. You can use our current processing time to gauge when you can expect to receive a final decision. Link to comment

pranu22 Posted December 24, 2011 Report Share Posted December 24, 2011 @H1Freak1 I saw a similar update on my case status at USCIS site. I hope we have nothing to worry and the approval notice comes in with COS approved too. Now even more tensed to see such a update...Is this case update a normal one?? Please Let me know when you receive the hard copy. Thanks !! Link to comment
kuku82 Posted December 24, 2011 Report Share Posted December 24, 2011 @VSC Mine approved dec 23 6-30 pm. I got the status update to Post decision activity around 6-30 pm EST and then another status update to "Decision' around 8-30 pm EST. Post decision activity stated that they mailed the approval notice Decision - stated that they emailed the notice. now worst thing is it was friday and after that this is a long weekend so I could not get hold of my attorney to know if it is approved with COS and for how long. I will come to know on tuesday now when attorney comes back to work..:( Link to comment

kuku82 Posted December 27, 2011 Report Share Posted December 27, 2011 Hello guys, I have a question about cos approval with petition approval. My attorney got a email notification that petition has been approved. The notice mentions the I 94 number but the consulate notified section is blank. So does it mean that my cos has been approved and I will get new I 94 with approval notice? Link to comment

Thanks Yesterday the status changed to 'Decision' stating "On December 27, 2011, this I129 PETITION FOR A NONIMMIGRANT WORKER was approved and we sent you an e-mail notice" Does it mean my visa extension is approved ??
