man_1975 Posted March 28, 2012 Report Share Posted March 28, 2012 @Ashukla, Very sad to hear about your case. Which model are you in. Had your client contacted? Link to comment
ashukla Posted April 3, 2012 Report Share Posted April 3, 2012 @ Ashukla: Very sorry to hear about your case. I believe you were in E-C relationship? Also can you please check your H1B status and let us know what it says? Try to file a new H1 with the client itself and see what happens. Yes I am in EC model, today I recieved a notification email from USCIS that they have received my case on April 2nd. well in my case client is a State Government and they can not hire H1 guys as their direct employee, so this option will not work here.

ashukla Posted April 3, 2012 Report Share Posted April 3, 2012 @Ashukla: Also as per your previous post you said that you were given white slip. Can you please let us know what were the docs they asked you to submit. They asked for the following docs:- copy of contract between petitioner and client client letter answers on question of EER from the employer. Link to comment

man_1975 Posted April 17, 2012 Report Share Posted April 17, 2012 Hi ashukla, I was refering this blog about your interview and 221G and found that you have received 221G white form. You had submitted documents to VFS. I found new things from following Mumbai consulate link. Who ever received white 221G form from mumbai consulate, they have to go consulate for visa interview again and further visa processing.please refere following link for 221G white form. Does visa office told you to submit documents to VFS ? http://mumbai.usconsulate.gov/221g-administrative-processing.html Link to comment
murthysantosh Posted April 18, 2012 Report Share Posted April 18, 2012 @Ashukla Very sorry for your case!!! ATB for your future plans! My Case: Interview attended : March 29th 221g issued : Yellow (consular haven't asked any documents and I haven't submitted any) Model : EVC Unfortunately I lost my 221g hard copy and I have only a softcopy( which is Ok not so good in clarity). But I know the number to check my status on pdf. Appreciate your advise on to get other copy of 221g. Link to comment

Does visa office told you to submit documents to VFS ? http://mumbai.uscons...processing.html I really appreciate your concern :), I also had the same question regarding the white slip weather I have to submit the docs or need to go personally but on the slip itself it was written to submit the docs to neares VFS location. I believe they didn not updated the website from an ages, Moreover the slip I received was captioned with Mumbai consulate but at the bottom it ask you to visit the link for Hyderabad Consulate for more details. So basically the slip itself doesnt belong to the Mumbai Consulate. Link to comment
ashukla Posted April 18, 2012 Report Share Posted April 18, 2012 Interview date : 27-Feb-2012 221G Yellow - VO kept LCA and I-129 After 2 weeks, got email saying my case has sent to KCC. Model : EC Result : no update yet Has USCIS/DOS contacted your client ? Is there any alternative ? Did you checked on the USCIS website that on which date they received your case, because in my case there is so much discrepancy. so just keep looking all over weather the USCIS have received your case or not.

tailorv Posted April 19, 2012 Report Share Posted April 19, 2012 Yes., status on USCIS website has changed to pending in last month. Its been a month now but no repsonse. what would be next step ? How many days it will take them to get back to us ? Link to comment
