A D Posted May 25, 2020 Report Share Posted May 25, 2020 Hi All, Need your advice on my situation below: I moved to US in Sept 2011 on L1B with X Company COS to H1B in 2015 Nov with another consulting firm - Company Y I140 approved in Jan 2018 Visited India in Nov 2018 after extension got approved (EVC model) 221G in Hyderabad consulate, submitted LCA/Client and Vendor Letters Realized that I submitted an old letter, sent the updated one as well immediately DOS reached out to the client with the old letter and they said it was expired No update after that, client rolled me off as there was no update on the Visa Joined Company X again in July 2019 Denied Business Visa in August (Mumbai) Withdrew the Visa application with US consulate in Aug 2019 Petition with company Y was sent for USCIS review in Sept 2019 H1B transfer approved in Dec 2019 with company X. Visa appointment in Feb 2020- 221G again - asked for the documentation regarding visa application from company Y. Told that all documentation was provided by Company Y no update since, they didn't reach out to new client as well. Can any one advice on what are the chances for approval here? Is there anything I can do to clear the previous petition ? What happens if petition with Company Y is given NOIR or NOID? Is there a chance I can apply for L1 with Company X Thanks in Advance.

gopalakrishnach Posted May 27, 2020 Report Share Posted May 27, 2020 Can any one advice on what are the chances for approval here? - we cannot say for sure. But high risk level. Is there anything I can do to clear the previous petition ? - NOPE. If they ask you for more evidence you need to provide them. What happens if petition with Company Y is given NOIR or NOID? - New employer new petition. Is there a chance I can apply for L1 with Company X - I do not know. Your profile already had remarks regarding your H1B trial. They may feel your intensions for migration. Quote Link to comment

I spoke to an attorney and they suggested that if we can get closure on the petition which was sent back to USCIS for Y company, new visa application from X company can be approved as this is a new one and is valid too. What do you think of the approach of an Attorney reaching out to USCIS on my behalf for them to take a decision on petition with company Y ? Quote Link to comment
02112018 Posted May 28, 2020 Report Share Posted May 28, 2020 Can any one advice on what are the chances for approval here? Depends PURELY on your luck, nobody can guess Is there anything I can do to clear the previous petition ? As your rolled off from client, that visa will get denied. What happens if petition with Company Y is given NOIR or NOID? NOIR means Notice of Intention to REVOKE the visa Is there a chance I can apply for L1 with Company X - Again depends on your LUCK and X company decision. Quote Link to comment
MurthyIndia_Lawyer Posted June 2, 2020 Report Share Posted June 2, 2020 In your case, there is potential fraud / misrepresentation if the consulate has misunderstood the document submitted originally. It would have helped if the client clarified that they issued a subsequently dated letter confirming the project. If they haven’t done that, then, there is a potential issue. It is best that you discuss your case with an experienced Immigration Attorney. If you need help, you may reach us on info@murthyindia.com. Quote Link to comment
